Anyone dealt with Ian/Moonster99 recently?

His site's not working and he's got no listings on eBay currently.

Bert bought a couple of chains a couple of weeks ago

[Bfellows]

Took the words out my mouth!  Delivered in about 10 days, great service and price 

[Retrodan72]

That's ok, as long as he's still trading, I guess he's on holiday, or something?

[factory pilot]

Strange ... Both Andy and I bought chains before MK with no probs? And I'm sure he had those new tange headsets on ebay only last week?

[Bfellows]

Just checked his site - says he's closed till September 22nd so probably on holiday.......

Sent while still being fooked after MK14

I just got some stuff from him this week.

He's usually good at getting back to people on FB.
Give him a shout on there Dan: https://www.facebook.com/NatsukashiBmx

Bought loads of stuff from him.  service, and never had to pay customs charges

[MartyC]

He is a member on here too..

Guys, he's alive and well or at least he was when I met him in Tokyo last Tuesday to pick up some bits for my Laserlite! 

He's now in Las Vegas for this year's Interbike show and said he's been busy preparing for that. I would therefore expect normal service to resume within the next week or so.

Great news mate, thanks for keeping us informed.

Indeed we were at Interbike working with Kashimax on their booth so we didn't get to see much of the show. Met Todd Lyons again from SE and Toby Henderson from BOX Components though. Like last year our neighbours were Nitto, MKS, Tange-Seiki, Dia-Compe and Sugino. Also had a nice chat with Marui-san, owner of Tioga (Marui Ltd is the real name), he has been around for years. Was hard work but fun as usual.




A Paul Smith Special coming out in October







Vegas: A place where there are more Elvis lookalikes that look nothing like him than anywhere


Work is done and time for a beer or 20 (Kashima-san can drink most under the table)

Ant's hit the nail on the head Ian, with the great work you're doing in Japan with manufacturers, you're giving guys like myself who can't really afford the OG stuff.

We're very grateful. 

[Mikku]

Thirsty work, all that seat-selling and Japanese translation!  Glad you had a good trip mate! 

[Natsukashi]

Thanks for the kind words chaps - one does what one can

Cool collection of photos.

Your service and quality of products are second to none. A massive thank you. Loving the black Panaracer freestyle tyres I bought from you - can't wait to get them fitted!

[Retrodan72]

Thanks for the kind words chaps - one does what one can 

If one can get white Panaracers and white Kashimax Aero's again, then this one will be very happy.

For sooth (whatever that means) one does indeed have white Kashimax Aero but awaits brother Panaracer for white HP406
