    Spot on Krusty !! One thing instead of sending you money to the sheep shaggers at Torpedo 7 ask your local Aussie shop if they will price match

    Ummmmmmm…. maybe before you spend your money with the Sausage munching Krauts at Aldi, consider buying of our sponsors. ;) :laugh:

    Our sponsors dont sell shit there are some people out there happy with Aldi shit and maybe fool themselves into thinking they are saving money in the long run. IMO ;)

    I considered when posting the above but thought they are wide and seperate markets that only tight arse, cheap stake with no idea could link as being the same, which happened it seems :laugh: :laugh: :P

    You know what Mick you are right :blush: I hadnt read the whole thing and now you mentioned it I have. The ramp our sponsors sell would be far better quailty then the Aldi one of course I have a whipps one and it is so strong. I see your point regarding the ramp. The cheap clothing well its just that :blink:

    Good point Mick and again because you will love it I will say, you are right ;)

    Talking about Ramps, I need one for my 330 odd KG Hog. The whips ramps are good for approx 225kg I think. Any suggestions ?

    Honestly first one that comes to mind?

    Why would any bike need to weigh 330 kilos??????
    do they sell them by the pound?

    Mr Blue,

    My logic, The heavier it is, the bigger it is, the bigger it is, the more pleasure it gives. Ask any women

    Aldi is a world wide conglomrerate who really do keep the other competitors honest. I fully and whole heartedly agree with supporting the local shop when I can and am able. But that ramp looks exactley the same as the one I saw in at Sutto’s last week. ;) Also of note is that Aldi is also supporting one of our sponsors and good on Aldi and the sponsor http://aldi.com.au/au/html/offers/2827_18690.htm A large proportion of Aldi products is actually aussie sourced. Of all the products I have purchased from them I can only think of a couple of things that I am not real happy with. Its your decision if you like the product and the price is good go for it. If you want to pay 40 % more for the exact same product thats your decision and your money. Thanks to whoever raised the thread (its been moderated) to let other people know what is out there.

    Tell me these are not the same product with a different label :unsure:

    I agree with everything you wrote 100%

    With your examples but mate the quailty of the sockets is the difference in those kits I actually have both kits and can take pictures off the quailty differences. The cheaper ones the sockets distort the 8mm one has. Honestly mate I know where you are coming from but there is a real quailty difference in the above examples. Out on the trail a simple fix can go pear shaped with a bad socket.

    You can see in the photos they are different sockets, different finish etc but I take your point mate about somethings ;)

    I do own some Aldi stuff it must be said. I have also purchased T bars from Torpedo earlier on. The Torpeo socket kit was left at my place, Kieran has claimed it but I have used it

    I have aldi socks and will go and have a look at the socks again

    I bought 3 sets of the sockets 1 initially and 2 after I found I was happy with them. I reckon they are good quality.

    I also saw the exact same ones at Prorider (unbranded) for $37) go figure :blink:

    Hey Greg dont you also have an Aldi digital Vernier :whistle:
