Does anyone know who does this?

I'm sure I've seen a link in Bike Help but having scrolled 30 + pages can't find anything :evil:

All Marshall did mine but I think I saw a post saying he no longer does it. May be worth asking.

Mike,
Who have you got to do your mastercylinder? I want to get one done too and wondered how much do they charge and does whoever you are using supply/fit new piston/seals? (I believe getting the circlip out is a bitch of a job without correct superlong pliers).

Cheers

John.

I had one done by Phil Klawsuk of triples fame. Cost is usually £50 plus the seal kit. Getting the circlip out is a piece of cake.
