    I have finally got around to replacing the tyres on my trusty T cat. The Bridgestones were completely shagged, and the original chain and sprockets were also past their best after only 11 years ~ disgraceful!!

    I have decided to go for a pair a Maxxis Supersports, Pete247 and Ses310 seem t rate them so it will be interesting to see how they suit the Thundercat and my riding style.

    Dynamec on the outskirts of Worcester offered a good price and a ride in ride-out service so Saturday morning I popped up and treated the Thundercat.

    My old front drive sprocket after 11 years and 26000km didn’t look too bad

    Unlike this shocking example the Dynamec team had removed from a Honda Hornet a few weeks before:

    Hornet sprocket, so bad they kept it for posterity. How did that bike even move??

    Quite sporty, be interesting to see how they cope the odd time I ride in the wet…

    New DID Chain&Sprockets…

    The lads at Dynamec were friendly and the service was execellent.
    The tryres cost £172 including fitting and the C&S was £99 fitted

    Now lets see if the tyres are any good!

    Those prices do see very very reasonable.

    Good stuff, it’s great to see the bike floating on the paddock stands, makes it feel like a pit stop.

    Well despite boiling hot temperatures I got to ride the T cat in the wet on the new tyres today. There was a huge thunderstorm…The tyres coped really well and the bike very secure and planted. Pleasantly surprised. Not pushing it at all yet, still less than 50 miles on them

    Will be interested to hear once you start pushing them! If they really are good, I can see alot of people going that way. I just replaced both mine on the Ninja (BT014’s), for £205

    Hi, Nick here from Dynamec, glad you are happy with them, they are very popular at the moment, and people are always happy to get a second set fitted [:)]

    I visited the industrial complex 2 weeks ago and Dynamec could not be found! At that time the landline contact number was ringing out, upon trying again last week the number was disconnected, so I take it that there is no fitting service anymore. The website still exists, but as the mobile contact number never gets answered I thought best look elsewhere. Today realised that nick-dynamec is a member on TBF, wondered if Nick could throw any light on the ability to supply?
