Hmm chrome and black lovely and crisp looking :daumenhoch:

Who did the chrome job and did they need to do any repairs etc prior to replating??

Just trying to build up some feedback on the chromers available to us all.

May be worth a link in its own right.

Thanks chaps for the great feed back on this one ! I gotta say she is a beauty ! I will bring her to Milton Keynes and show her off !!

I got the chrome job done by a guy in Banwell nr Bristol, Doug Taylor - he has done a few BMX's in his time - Top bloke
http://sitebuilder.yell.com/sb/show.do?id=SB0002037145000010

If anyone wants to use me as a go between ie send me the frame etc I am quite prepared to take it too him and send it back !

My frame was in goodish condition - bit of pitting - usual story - he charges between £120 - £150

Thanks again - also to Wolfy Vert Ego and a bird in the states for a very cheap Tuff Neck !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;)
