Has anyone here purchased from Slane Cycles in Ireland?

[ScaldedCat]

I know nothing about Slane cycles but I think i would have gone crazy when i had my custom bike made, and it was a local outfit. It would have been nightmarish if i had had to do all my business via email and phone calls with an 8 hour time difference... (I wanted a Mercian bike... but gave the idea up when i found out how hard it was going to be just to communicate..)

Mercian IS my LBS (or one of them anyway, kinda spoilt in my area) A 5 or 6 minute cycle ride away.
