Hi all, can anyone help with a source for Navigator rear brake shoes or a quick, reliable relining service, preferably in the Somerset area? Just as the weather turns fine I discovered my linings are too close to the rivets for comfort and a search of the NOC shop and on line hasn't thrown anything obvious up!

Thanks chaps, I spoke to Villiers Graham and they quoted 10 working days which I didn't want to wait for although they seem very efficient and competitively priced. Thanks for the offer Dan, Exeter is worth knowing about although the nearest I could find on the internet this morning was Friction Services at Keynsham near Bristol (www.frictionservices.co.uk). I phoned them and they were willing to do them in time for the weekend provided I dropped them off before midday. I'm near Crewkerne and was going up to Wells for a meeting early afternoon so it was only half an hour out of my way. Very friendly and flexible, the chap I spoke to had owned a Navigator back in the day and deals with all sorts of exotic classic bikes, cars and trucks so keen to help. He even suggested I could pick them up Friday evening from his house which is much closer to home. I will report back once they are done!
