Nick and I use Doug Taylor down here in the Bristol area Steve.
He did my quadangle and it cost £140 frame and forks. You can send it to me and I will take it to them and send it back.

Sean,
140 is a good price,
a mate of mine gets loads of Triumph Stag parts done by Doug Taylor's - he says they are 2nd to none, but I thought they were expensive from what he told me?
I may jump on this and send something your way for chroming?
did the 140 inc. prep-work? etc...

All I did was drop the frame and forks to them, they stripped the paint from the frame and the chrome from the forks, 4 weeks later... done. As for the £140, they quoted me £180 but as I was paying cash the knocked ££ off. I am not saying they will do that everytime though. Nick has had something done recently so will know an up to date price of them.
However, I did take a set of forks there recently to be stripped of chrome ready for powder and they charged me £5 and took 4 days. Also had a set of forks stripped and chromed about 6 months ago and they charged me £30.
If you want anything done, send it to me mate.
