Gnarlyscoots:
Hockleys in Southend buddy. They usually charge around £40 for the fork and £100 for the frame.
Their turn around time is approx 12 weeks though, sometimes less.
I have had 2 frames, 2 fork and 3 handle bars done with them so far :daumenhoch:

Were any of the bars stamped Terry? Got some Redline stamped bars arriving tomorrow, which i think are gonna need a re-chrome.

The Haro bars were stamped and the Torker bars had the knurling on the stem area. The Torker bars were shot to be honest so the knurling is a little faint now but the Haro bars are amazing :daumenhoch:
I found it best to go and see them and point out the areas that needed special care and attention to detail :coolsmiley:

This ^^^^^^ is absolutely key advice , NEVER assume someone will do something you ask of them if you don't explain it & point it out in person .
