    Just letting you guys know what a great experience I've had with Superformance out of the UK.I ordered some suspension parts last tuesday night and they arrived this morning.That's practically three working days if you don't include the weekend from the UK to Australia!The prices are good and the shipping costs are low as well.I don't know if Mike is a sponsor but he should be so that he can get more exposure.I have no affiliation with them at all just that I have ordered through him a few times and every time has been perfect.

    Not about Superformance specifically, but I have had the same experience with JH Ducati. Parts arrive within 3 working days ex factory, compared to months through local distributor. Good UK suppliers are a godsend for us Aussies.

    I bought a set of the 16" Mondial wheels from Superperformance not too long ago (to replact the TRX metrics). Although I have limited experience with intercontinental shipping, they did arrive earlier than I had expected. I'm learning fast though. Very pleased with them.

    For those of you who know Mike, he is going to enjoy a well deserved retirement by the end of this month. So if you would like to say goodbye to him or thank him, you have got till the end of this month.

    Superformance will have a new owner as from august.

    You know, Mike is as sweet as a pie. I cycled over to him yesterday to pick something up (avoiding the usual bumper to bumper gridlock). I took a wrong turn and got lost and he waited for me 20 minutes after the shop had shut. He was really nice about it too. What a guy.

    Hello from Germany,

    can someone confirm this rumour ? I still had e-mail conversation with Mike some days ago ( 10th August ).

    Best Regards

    Martin

    Rumour confirmed,

    Deal in process though not completed someone has told me it might be done by end of the month.

    Apparently not one of the big players - which hopefully will be good for all of us!

    Mike and his team have been of great service, very helpful and at a reasonable price.

    I hope none of those three elements change when the business is sold.

    I just had a problem & Mike fixed it quicker than anyone in the USA would or could have. I'm making Superformance my main parts supplier. Sounds like an ad but I'm f&*#@* impressed!

    I have dealt with Mike , Ron & Adele & they are simply the best. Although I am sure that they deserve a nice reirement (s africa maybe?) I will really miss them. They really dont have any competition over here in the US.
