    Ball swivel?

    Hello fellow baggers,

    Can any UK members tell me where I can Purchase an Everlast plastic ball swivel here in the UK? I have searched and searched but came up with rubbish! Sugar Rays, I think is one of our best stores but, they have what looks like a very cheap economy swivel. Don't want to buy something that's going to fall apart.

    An online and in-store boxing specialist, Sugar Rays supplies a variety of quality boxing equipment. Visit a respected Boxing Shop in Essex!


    I have made my own, from an old chain link housing and used a metal ball but, it's so noisy I can't hear the bag hitting the board.

    Cheers

    Vini

    If your talking about the Everlast Bell Swivel ( http://www.sugarrays.co.uk/shop/Ever...ivel-p-58.html ) dont get it. That type of swivel is terrible. it will get stuck in the housing and is not smooth at all.

      Rats, I just shipped your book and DVD. I could have stuck a swivel in there. We have lots of stores here that sell them. I was Just a bit late on this one, sorry. Let me know if no UK folks can help.

          ukspeedbag, take a look at this german shop: www.sport-tiedje.com

          Shipping to UK is 7 GBP, so it would be a total of about 12 GBP for swivel and shipping.

          This shop is great, I ordered my stuff there and will probably buy this swivel there too.

          Hope this helps.

                Cheers mate. I still haven't got round to buying one so I'll have a look! I actually made one from an old chain link housing. Mounted it and found it way too noisy for outside. I'll be falling out with my neighbors in no time, so I'm putting up with the pro deluxe thing.

                Thanks
