Took 3 months on my steering stem. But it is quality workmanship. Can't complain about that.

I cannot confirm this, but I heard that TimmyBoy is having some bad legal problems. 2 people have said this to me that have things on order from them.

I hope it's not true, but I wanted to share what I've heard.


Here is a portion from one the individuals I heard this news from (this guy is from Spain, so his English is not so good).




I inform all of you you that the 15th May 2002 i have placed an order to TimmyBoy to purchase 2 sets of +2/+1 A-Arms for Raptor and 1 set of +3/+1 for Raptor also, and ten days later i also have ordered 4 Renthal sprockets of 15 Teeth and also 4 Case savers.

The 22th May 2002 he charged to my Visa $ 855 USD as a 50% of my order to start making the A-Arms, and the 12th June 2002 he charged to my Visa $1354.60 USD
as the rest of the order including the sprockets and case savers and shipping by UPS.

After thousands of excuses and pretextes and falses dates of shipping and promissing to send me the track number of the shipping, and send me an e-mail dated 30th July telling me that he has legal problems...Nowadays i haven't received anything yet (28th August 2002). I Try to phone him, but i only get the Automatic Phone Answer.
