Thumbs up to Pumabuild

October 7, 2006

My buddy Tony and I went up to Pumabuild in Birmingham today to get my brake discs skimmed. They have a very cool machine which will do the skimming while the discs are still in place on the car, thus making them perfect for my specific (dodgy) hubs.

I was a bit worried that the vibration I was getting was being caused by something else, but with the DTI attached it was pretty clear the discs really were about as straight as a £9 note.

Cost was about the same as a new set of discs for me, but the discs would have taken 4 weeks from America and with North Weald just a few days away I didn't have much choice.

Anyway, good service from Pumabuild even if the Brummy accents sometimes needed a translator...
