This was my first time visiting the Lomo shop. Grant was friendly and helpful. I purchased a neoprene swimsuit which has been fantastic for swimming in the sea so far this winter with the water temperature is about 9º.
Great service. Grant was really helpful and knew immediately the right size for me. Bought it on Friday and used it Saturday morning - what a difference it makes. It was very reasonably priced and well worth it. Thanks Lomo
I bought the Vizallo 40L Motorbike Dry Bag Holdall for my Ducati Monster. My 5 day trip consisted of wet and dry weather, the bag didn't let any water in. What a great buy. Very easy to fit on to the bike. I used an extra couple of bungees just to make sure it stayed on. I would highly recommend Lomo for motorcycle accessories.
First time at Lomo and first time buying a wetsuit. I had looked at the website and was pleased to see they had a variety of sizes for all shapes and heights! Grant was extremely friendly and helpful. He knew straight away what would fit me and what wetsuit would serve the purpose it was needed for. I had been dreading getting stuck in a sea of neoprene so was pleased when the first one I tried fitted! Thank you for making it a painless experience!
I bought a pair of the large 30l panniers from you a few months ago and I just wanted to say that they are great! I have a Royal Enfield 500 Classic, and they are ideal for it. I've used them a fair bit in all weather. No problem for the pillion passenger, completely waterproof, strongly made and easy to fit. For £55 they are really good value. The information video on your website was really helpful when I was making my decision on what type of pannier to buy. It made me a lot more confident they would fit and be suitable, than buying a different type from another company. The guy presenting them looked very trustworthy! Proved to be the case too. Nice people to deal with by email as well. All together, really good. Very happy! PS the extra bag on the saddle in the photo is a handlebar bag (not Lomo) as a bit of extra storage.
Lomo is a great store for watersport accessories. Ive been buying stuff from them for years and in my experience it is always great value for money on high quality products. Ive got loads of dry bags, boxes, general on water accessories and wetsuits. All of which are great. Definate recommemdation
Visited here today as I’m going on a surfing holiday in Cornwall. The staff were super helpful and informative. I left with nearly everything I needed and the prices were better than the online retailers I looked at before visiting. It was nice to try everything on for size as well as this was my fist wetsuit purchase. Unfortunately they didn’t have any female wetsuits in stock for my flatmate but she still managed to pick up a couple accessories. Definitely recommend!
ECO Float TPU Swimming Tow Float Dry Bag - Orange. I bought this product some time ago and have been using it to keep my car keys and phone with me when sea swimming. It's been excellent, great value, great environmental credentials, also great service from LOMO Watersport. However the other day... I lost it. I was 15 minutes into my swim, it was a pretty calm pleasant day, with a little bit of swell. I had checked my position at 10 minutes and the float was there, but at 15, when I was turning back to head to land. It was missing. The belt was still attached, but no bag. I swam back to land, not very happy with how my day was turning out. Once back on shore I found out that luck and the tide was on my side today. I could see my bright orange "tug along" gently floating down the coast on the tide. I was able to head down the coast about 300 metres and swim out to where it had settled on some rocks. So very very lucky. When I examined the bag (photo attached) I found that the lanyard had been twisting in the rhythm of the swell and gradually tightened up until it had put enough pressure on the plastic clip to force it open and disconnect the bag from the lanyard. I note that some of the LOMO swim bags have a more robust carabiner in their design. I will be replacing this particular clip with a locking carabiner. It will be a worthwhile upgrade. I really like this bag and want to give it 5 stars, but this could have been a complete disaster which probably deserves 1 star. I'll sit in the middle.... 3 stars, but I recommend looking at the other LOMO designs. No one wants to walk home !!!! UPDATE - SEPTEMBER 2022 I continue to use my “tug along” and it is performing brilliantly. I made two changes. Firstly I fitted a new stainless steel carabiner (it cost about £3), secondly I shortened the lanyard so the float is closer to my body, this has stopped it “spinning” and the lanyard no longer gets twisted even in choppy water. It’s all good… 5 STARS now.
Fantastic family run business, so very helpful and friendly, their motorcycle gear really is top notch, and I probably shouldn't say this but they don't charge enough for the quality of equipment they sell.
