<< < (3/4) > >>

Swivel:

Yes mate, that's the one, my brother knows the guy there really well as they send stuff round there all the time. Speaking to them this week. Need to get the frame dripped first to remove whatever chrome is left then powdercoated. Can't wait to see it all done actually  :daumenhoch:

Having said that, I'll be going to SuperbikeDan for my next lot  :daumenhoch:

I suppose, you know there's a Metal finisher down Pindar Road as well.

I've used him in the past for chroming some bars and a Hutch stem. He managed to get a good finish on the stem, but slightly over polished it as it had to be re-chromed a couple of times to get a decent finish. He also did some bars for me that were great apart from the tight area's hadn't been polished enough leaving it looking a little 'brassy'  ::)

Swivel:
Oh yeah these are the guys that are going to dip the frame to remove that chrome before powdercoating. I will probably use these guys for two Tioga cranks I have. Cheers  :daumenhoch:

P.S. Do you live close to Hoddesdon then mate? I'm in Epping, about 15 mins drive from Hoddesdon....

I'm about 5 minutes north of Hoddesdon  :daumenhoch:

Let me now how the frame looks after they've done the dipping to remove the chrome - I need some forks done
