just looking for an expierences of Loco tuning.Their prices look good compared to the competition.Not that impressed with TFT last time and would rather not use Mojo so will probably give them a go. And yes I know Loco posts on here 😀
Bought bits off him but not had him service anything as I like to DIY - top chap on the phone and much more interested in helping than TFT who seem to speak in cryptic riddles.
might be able to tell you soon. I blew a seal at the STW Weekender and Simon very kindly took my fork there and then. I got it back in the post fully serviced, but it's still sat on my workbench waiting for a new headset bearing before fitting.
Nice guy, if those kind of things matter to you
the guy is awesom! nothing is too much trouble - im chuffed to bits with him, his knowledge and his turnaround! his prices are great too! knows what hes on about had a few jobs and bits from him now, and hes been top class to deal with from start to finish! give him a shot im sure he will not disappoint!
hey stilltortoise 😉 fancy seeing you here! 😆
hijack - our emails have made me wanna go out RIGHT NOW!
lol
Damn right!
I've had parts and service done by Loco and next time I have suspension issues I cant do myself he (Simon) will be getting more of my custom or a friendly phonecall for advice.
Highly recommended.
Yep - Excellent service here and cheaper than the alternatives.
Chatted to him at the Bristol Bike Jumble a while back - was a decent bloke and on that front will get business from me when I need it.
I wouldn't use anyone else now, very helpful on the phone, excellent turnaround times.I've had a set of coil u turn pikes serviced, and a set of Fox 36 float r's converted to Vanillas, most impressed with both.
HTH.
Yes top company/bloke wouldn't hesitate to recommend him.
He fixed my Fox Float forks at the price of a regular service (I'd pinched an air seal, apparently). I have no complaints. 😀
Careful, he quite popular now, so wait times (appointment wise, not how long he takes) can be an issue 😐
Very helpful, on here & the phone when I bought a seal kit from him though.
Never had an issue with TF though.
Another positive experience with LOCO here, fast turnaround, good information and very happy with the end result
bought some forks from him for a very good price. unfortunately had to test his warranty service, but found this was excellent on response and turn-around.
booked fork in, awaiting the call back from him. I shall report back in a couple of weeks.
LoCo - excellent guy and tip top advice and parts.
As above, bought a set of forks from him and have had my shock serviced there also. Great service and great help too.
Will be sending my other forks there when they need a service.
TooTall - is he local then?
Loco - cracking bloke and service in my experience 🙂
And I thought this would be about re-chipping an Intercity 125 😉

Great service and prices, perhaps too good as it was a 6 week wait for a slot when I had my forks & shock serviced 🙂
Bought a rear shock of Loco about 2 months ago. Nice bloke, great service and great prices.
There is a wait at the moment, but you can keep on riding your forks and shock until your kit is ready to be looked at 🙂
In an ideal world, you'll know when your service intervals are, and book well in advance.
I'm a bit biased, as he does all my servcing work for me - but I couldn't imagine going anywhere else now, his QA and eye for detail is superb.
Plus, he's bonkers cheap.
And bonkers.
Top guy - great service; can't recommend him highly enough.
I bought a set of forks from the classifieds that needed a service but being a skint student couldn't afford to send it off. The service kit from LoCo was the cheapest I could find and he even talked me through a couple of the common pitfalls.
He will be the first person I'd call if getting my forks serviced/checked etc.
Excellentay!!!
andyl - he is a man of the Valleys over that bridge thingy that goes West. He has had the jabs so can venture as far as Bristol on occasion, but is not a Bristolite.
Awesome bloke, brilliant service.....I wouldn't let anyone else loose on my forks.
Superb service.
Very good service and great advice!
ahh. A prescription charge dodger 😀
I don't like him.
He made me ride 721km(climbing 2.5 everest from sea level) on a bike that he fiddled with. The forks needed special attention to do that sort of thing without wrecking my upper body.
He's fiddled and modded my suspension on lots of bikes and given me exactly what I've asked for- even when I wasn't really sure what I was asking for.
He's got Skillz.
There is a pre-booking wait for a reason. He's good. Very good.
Worth the wait.
Going to be sending him my Revs and RP23 when they need looking at in October 😀
Apparently he uses kittens tears instead of fox float fluid. Although I may have made that up.
Tidy.
And real helpful.
As well as just over the hill from home.
Just needs a bigger letterbox so I can drop stuff in after work/at weekend.
