    LOL 2 wheels can suck out... and its another shop you shouldent be recomending on here im afraid... were not paying for/running the site to let people know establishments wiht poor reputations exist...

    but ye, mac motors aint a bad shop, as far as a spares shop can go LOL used them alot as they were local and didnt fuck about (lived in mitcham obviously) good for bits and always get you what you need if it aint in stock (usually next day) but ye, wouldent go down there unless i needed somthing tbh.. nothing to see, i remember missioning on the train to london scooters years ago.. was pissin wiht rain, was there 2 mins, took us 4 hours all in all to get there an back, soaked.. what a waste of time

    drum breaks are good if you have a good drum liner in the wheel, if the wheels shot you will neve get a good break, if its nice and the shoes/arm is in decent condition aswell as the cable being ajusted correctly/less than a year old (its a service item remember) a drum is bangin... not as good as a disk for obvious reasons but there not to be completly written off.. a drum dont stop you wheelying... lots of people prefer them.

    I never recomended 2wheels lol, been there once and everything was fuckin expensive and the guy there was a prick!.

    I like cbs in whitton the most, theyve probably got the most tuning parts and nice goodies in london and theyve never let me down if i need standard bits, most friendly too.. mac motors is ite though like minor said only for std bits really because everything else is shit due to it being shit stuff or just sooo expensive that no1 buys it.

    I lived is south/west all my life until a few years ago but i moved to north outskirts o_O
