    Quad bike trailer tyres

    We look after the local outdoor pig herds bikes and trailers, we have moved the trailers on to these RST tyres with great success. Although still a 4ply they are standing up to the daily abuse far better than a standard knobby. Probably fitted more than 100 now. Redstone are a good company to...

    Tyre and exhaust depots.

    We have a small tyre depot and unfortunately yes it is best to book an appointment, we just can’t physically keep up with volume of work coming in. We will try to help as best we can and if someone is desperate then they can wait and we will do our best to get it done as soon as we can. A lot of...

    What do you think of your cross climate tyres “in snow”?

    I’m sure there is an option in 17 and 18 inch but I would need to check for actual sizes.

    RL trailer

    I think this trailer would be great for us harvesting trees at the nursery. We work in all weathers so the lad working on the trailer would kept dry and the lads walking along side look like they would be covered by the gull wing so keep them dry too. Better get a couple ordered 😂.

    Nice job, mogs are good to work on, I’ve worked on a few for my tree surgeon mate, his first 1 was A reg (1979/80 I think) and the spec on it was unreal, 80k box, full suspension, air brakes. They must of been some machines back then. His 2nd he imported from Belgium in 2020 and we rebuilt it to...

    Question for large hectares /long hours sprayer operators.

    I used to work for a place where I sprayed all the spuds and the young and up coming boss would spray the arable. More than once I would come in on a Monday to find the sprayer broken, empty of diesel, needing washed out or the bowser empty. It didn’t bother me too much as he had to learn and it...
