I was going to treat myself to some new sticks and bars but the website and Facebook page have gone, have they folded?

In reply to Post #1
They were alive and well last week!

See what you mean, hope they've not gone under, I was gonna get some bits in the new year.

I had noticed they were running the titanium stock down but the black stuff was all still going strong last time I checked.
Gutting if they've gone, that stuff is/was awesome.

They sorted an issue with a set of bars I'd had for years foc the other week, their customer service is probably one of the best in the industry.

Agree, I had an issue with the top of one of my sticks coming slightly loose after about 4 years. I asked them how I could fix it and they sent me a new one!

Hopefully it's just a technical glitch or something

They've closed their Facebook page but are still trading

I'll see if the website goes back up then

In reply to Post #8
I hadn't noticed the website going down when I spoke to them they said they were just closing down their social media accounts like Instagram and faceache

They are part of Midland Precision Engineering who's website is still going strong. MPE Tackle site still down today.

I emailed Will so I'll see if he replies, if things aren't going too well he's probably got more important things to do than reply to me cos I want a pair of small two rod adjustables though.

On that note......if anyone has a pair going, please drop me a message 😬

In reply to Post #16
No they're not mate. Real shame.

Thanks mate, yes it is a shame their stuff was pukka

If you're desperate there is an option. This place in Germany still hold a fair bit of stock of the standard black stuff.

I got a few bits off them and while it works out expensive (shipping is like 11 or 12 quid) it showed up quickly.

I don't know of anywhere that still has the titanium stuff though mate.

Pukka, thanks mate I will check them out. I wanted to replace a two rod buzz bar black and silver, do you know if the black is the quick release?

In reply to Post #20
Yes it is mate
It is the black/silver stuff they do

im on there nice one, just cant work out how to change it to English

In reply to Post #22
Lol.
Open it in Chrome. Google Translate should do it for you

I wanted one of them lock keys they have for the newer release thumb screws

In reply to Post #24
I wanted one of the key spanners for the banksticks and buzz bars , so I made one for the latest version triangle with radius Im currently programing the older type round with scollops . Let me know which type you're after and next time I'm on the appropriate machine at work , I will knock one up for you buddy .

If anyone is interested,I have a black set of buzz bars front and back non adjustable, 12" and 10" brand new and unused. Open to offers 😉 pm if you are
.

In reply to Post #25
What a legend , I think it's the newer type I need. 3 rounded edge version.

I was looking for some MPE bits to go with my current setup. I have contacted the shop below and it would appear they know the owner of MPE tackle and get fresh stock as they had run out of the bits. It was all very easy as well as there english is better than my German and English. www.kboiliebudeshop.de/de/rodpods-banksticks/mpe-tackle
