Well I tried ringing AF today. Rang a total of 78 times. Each time it was engaged. Gave up in the end. Ordered a SIL one from scooter restorations this afternoon and it's already been dispatched. Can't get much better service than that. Hopefully the quality matches the service.

Use SIL!!!!
I've fitted a UNI and its oval. The SIL Hubs are heavier than anything but a Tino safety hub. I know somwone who has a safety hub and that's oval as well.

The last hub I bought was a UNI after being advised they were the best around, and that was oval, very oval!
So you pay your money and take a chance

These oval UNI ones match my oval SIL one. I'm going back to Ramp.

Did you know the word "RAMP" when translated to dutch means "Disaster"?
I've seen good and bad UNI hubs but SIL are my prefered type, you can still get an oval one but most are good.

Buying anything at the moment for Lammys seems a nightmare. Well I got my SIL hub through next day. Seems ok. All I had to do was to take the rubbish paint that was on it and respray it black. I told my mate id bought a SIL and he shouted no no no they are crap get a UNI
Cant bloody win

To late now anyway. If it oval then it will feel like im on one of the fairground merry go round where the horses go up and down.
