Popped in to buy a couple of bits and Cliff showed me round the shop. Never forgotten loved it.

[@Triumph-Tiger-90-Com]

Cliff is one of small group of highly respected Triumph experts along with John Healey, David Gaylin, Don Hutchinson, Keith Martin, Bill Getty and a few others who really know their stuff and support restorers. Well done for promoting ACE Classics.

Absolutely loved that. What an amazing business. And they talk like I used to before 26 years in Australia. My Dad was a big Triumph fan. I grew up around them. I have owned two myself. Sold one a few weeks ago. If I still lived local I would definitely call in.

[@onemanandhiswhippet]

Great video and thanks for your help and all the parts I’ve had of you too 👍👍👍

[@mauibill7233]

Thanks for this video. I had the pleasure of hosting this entire family back in the 90's. Gina is amazing. Cheers from your biggest fan in Hawaii. Ironically, I find myself wearing your T-shirt as I write this. Gonna need a new one soon......

[@nicholasparkin6979]

Proper old school shop. Excellent.

[@Davidl-ux5ke]

I'm now nearly 56 and the thought of classic bikes like this would be a big turn off back in the day but now I absolutely love them and i want one

[@FreddieDobbs]

My god😍 And Lazenby’s Triumph!

[@georgemorrison6689]

Great video and well done to the lads building up such a successful business, lovely machines

[@VonRyansExpress]

his video is fantastic !! . . . Its like a trip to Motorcycle (Triumph) Heaven . . . God bless you guys for what you do . . Best of luck in '25 . . P.S. Baxter Cycle in Marni Iowa are getting ready to clear a three story building of old British Motorcycles and spares - there appears to be enough in there to keep the world's Triumphs going for the next century . . . A clearance so might be cheap

[@NodbodRS]

Wow, what a mega place. Magical.

[@mickgerard6696]

Incredible dedication to they’re craft.

[@Zilpan]

Really good to see Cliff, I have fond memories of DJing for him in the 70's at the Northover pub in Downham, great to see that the business is a big success, best wishes for the future, keep on Rockin', Mick.

[@GerryPowell-r6s]

What a fantastic shop,coming from the sixties myself i thought these places were gone forever.

[@FrederickBowdler]

A very very nice collection. 😊🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@michaelfirth1075]

Great video guys, fantastic to see enthusiasts running a bike shop. I’m 72 now and still love my bikes as much as I did when I was 16. Keep up the fantastic work you do.😊

[@RobertGott-c3f]

Excellent video😮😮great shop signs and bikes and parts Pleasure to watch 😮 Thank you

[@stephenwilliams926]

I would have loved to see in the back of Vale Onslows back in the day, when they was on the Stratford Road. Great video.

[@TheBrummiedoug]

We used to go there in the mid sixties. We spent over an hour in the Fork Room one Saturday afternoon looking for some Norman leading link forks, we did find some for a winter hack.. Peter has a load of stuff at his Unit.

[@daveco1270]

Ace Classics is the best. I'm in the states but I've ordered a few things from them, including some of those T-shirts. I didn't know Walt Disney designed that tiger logo. That's an interesting bit of trivia. So much cool stuff in that shop.

[@Ottensener123]

Thanks a lot for this video and the support in the restauration of my 1961 TR6S. The bike find the way from India in poor condition as a basketcase (with matching numbers) to me. Without the parts from Ace Classics it had be realy difficult and long termed to finishing the project. A happy and peaceful 2025 to all from germany

[@markwood9755]

Wow, what an amazing business. Excellent content, Thank you 👍👍

[@johnpeterson7245]

Superb service from this business, they supplied many unobtainable parts for my 38 speed twin a few years ago.

[@stevem7868-y4l]

Im a Norton fan, but appreciate, this is a cool shop

[@Beeza56]

This has made my day! Thanks so much for posting, wonderful stuff. See you at Oley in June. Cheers.

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

Ah, that's so cool :)

[@robertpeaker8495]

Great shop, great service, great people

[@ownersguides]

Amazing, thanks for sharing ♥

[@nigelfirth1782]

Love it - an old school Aladdin's cave for Triumph owners. After seeing all the twins, I wondered if you had any dealings with the TR25W and then, I saw a quick glimpse of the exploded diagram of one. I had one back in the day, bought used from Comerfords. I traded it for an ex-police TR6P, which was great!

[@zedcharlie]

Brill. I got my first triumph. 56 t110 a couple of months ago. Now I know where to go 👍

[@RichardGoodwin-j5q]

SUPERB SHOP OLD SKOOL COOL!!👍

[@swannyisnumberone]

Great walkabouts. I'll be heading down for a visit in the spring. I run without lights and you're a 140 mile round trip. Its a BSA though 😂

[@inspectorclouseau3880]

Nice shop

[@2wheelsrbest327]

Never been there and it looks a great shop. Mate sold them an export Bonnie & a twenty one several years ago just a shame I hadn't seen him in years and knew he was selling them. Pretty sure I wouldn't of been able to restore them to ACE standards anyway. Back in 1969 I brought a 69 Bonnie from Deeprose which was just down the road from them. If only I had kept it ! Great video thanks.

[@philnewcomers9170]

great vid seen you at Kempton i perchaced some of those mudguard bolts nice vid ttfn&ty

[@Mr19thcenturyman]

I've ordered parts from them. Top quality. Fast shipping to Colorado.

[@velocettedude]

A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year From someone who knows you guys in Barrow In Furness in Cumbria. I will give you chaps a call later in the week as i need a part. Cheers.

[@glenister8770]

I can't believe that you have a Vauxhall Vellox, I used to own one in the 70's, the oil pump went so I sold it, totally regret it now 😢

[@kevinobrien1259]

I love Triumphs but the Matchless model X under the counter deserved a mention,

[@craigkaschan4822]

Love your videos and bikes. Greetings from Australia fella’s 🇦🇺

[@TheClassicMotorcycleChannel]

Cheers mate

[@AA-nt5qw]

Awesome work guys, was really enjoying all, but as not a Triumph guy, feeling a bit detached- then- lo and behold- showing your true taste- a 67 or 68 Royal Enfield Interceptor. Would love to know the number- it’s on the drive side on the crankcase, just below the cylinder- mine’s a ‘67, #180 If you have the time Cheers

[@johnthebeekeeper1706]

Absolutely brilliant but how do you know how to find anything organised kayos 👍👍👍

[@dogpaw775]

rhat's the way to do it. Enthusiasm and knowledge sells Triumph, not having to mention S.McQ every other word. Does Euan's vapour blaster go up to 11 ?.

[@Pre-Unit_Triumph]

The '59 Royal Blue Bonneville 790MHK is that a USA bike or original UK bike? Thanks.

[@davidtodd7538]

Not many Brit bike shops left
