Best allrounder I've ever owned 👍

HEL offered to change full set again - they have escalated the problem to the manufacturer. So I can either wait or choose a different colour...... ???

So HEL are not the manufacturer, so they get them made in China.

These were from a pre packed set, so as the bike out of production for so long would have thought it a bit of a waste trying to sort it?   ???

They'll be made as a massive roll of hose & then cut to length I'd have thought. So still made & just cut to different sizes.

agree new ones will be just made of big rolls  but Both packs I have bought were in a vacuum sealed packaging with a complete set, my guess they were made and put on the shelf a long time ago  :bugga:

No matter how you look at it. Shit quality that must be costing them more in the long run. By offering a lifetime guarantee.

I thought they were made in the UK in Exeter?

If they are made in China that'll explain the shit quality.  :thumbs_down:

Of coarse the big roll and fittings are made in China, and put together by Chinese in Exeter.
