Just got a good quote from med for alot of machining to be done was wondering if there work was any good

[blacktulip]

heard they are good but never had anything done by them. i bought a stage 1 clutch kit once and it was very good.

[minilee94]

Okay cheers :)

Going by the products they produce, they will be good. Although never had any machining done by them myself personally

Never had machine work from them, but they got a good rep. I went to there shop to buy pistons and they had some really nice looking engines and parts kicking around.

Yeah I got my omegas from there :) seems pretty good to me

Im not slagging off mini speed at all but med are £200 cheaper surely saving money is the way to go

My brother has had some block work and other parts machined by Med. Their work was absolutely spot on! I would have no hesitation in using them.

The only trouble he has had was with a couple of Piper Cams wearing extremely rapidly. He has since swapped back to Kent and has had no trouble at all with them. But that may have been down to a bad batch though, it does happen, unfortunately.

Do MED actually have any machines in their place to do machinig, ?

[summs116]

I thought they got outside company's to do there work.that what I have be told,but I've got there fully work crank and s crank pulley with management teeth on and it's seems to be hanging on at the mo.
