Has anyone bought anything from Tweeks cycles - are they legit ie not another Dave Hinde

Emphatically legit- though they've only recently got into the cycle market, well established as an aftermarket seller of car parts etc. Not bought anything from them, but I've seen their store (10,000 square feet in Wrexham), very impressive.

Yes, I've bough from them before, can't remember exactly what it was as it was a while back, but I had no problems with them.
FYI, they are part of Demon Tweeks, originally a motorsport retailer, been around for years (30 plus that I can remember).

Yep.

Genuine.

They've got a large showroom in Wrexham. Mate rides for them. Ordered a couple of things from them fine, and they've ALWAYS replied to my emails.

And as mentioned, they're a spin off on Demon Tweeks, but for bicycles instead.

They're great. Local to me and they do a good service. They'll price match too.

Strong recommendation. I recently had component failure on a shimano rear derailleur and they dealt with the problem in a very patient, professional and accommodating fashion. four and a half star service (out of five)- there had to be a bit of me contacting them rather than other way round but essentially a very thorough and trustworthy bunch I'd say and very friendly with it. I'd have no hesitation recommending them.

I ended up buying a genesis bike from Tweeks on people's recommendations on this thread. Very pleased would recommend.

Localish to me, very good store and very good service. As someone else has already stated, it was started off the back of Demon Tweeks and if you are into motorsport in anyway shape or form you will know them as a market leader on on-line retailing backed up by a warehouse full of stock and an equally massive store. I would have no problems recommending them to anyone.
