yup,feel really let down,they did an awesome job on my flights then lash up my frameset.talking to superbikedan about it he thinks that it was left in the gunk tank to long and the stripper pitted the metal,its the only explanation as to why a mint frameset with no rust turns out so bad. :-[

Gutted for you mate, I think the Hockley thread should be removed from the Tech section. Have stupidly used them twice and therework is sub standard and they dont meet there deadlines when it comes to doing the work. :angrysoapbox:

the thing that annoys me the most is that in their thread they say 'we give it a CONSIDERABLE polish'.thats the one thing that annoys everybody the most about chromers,the lack of polishing but hockley say they give it the full works,could have fooled me,looks like no polishing at all was done to my cw :'(

And I bet they had it longer than originally quoted?
