Title: tools, chromers, powder coaters in London for a UK n00b
Post by: fuuzoku on March 28, 2012, 03:52 PM

Hi all,

being new to London I was hoping I could get a few names of suppliers that are everyone's go to guys around town.

I work in Clerkenwell so places around that area would be great.

looking for:

general bike parts and tools
shops for trueing wheels


(the below doesnt matter where as willing to travel for the best quality)
powdercoaters
chromers
media blasters (for paint, powder, cleaning tuffs etc)
frame repairs

can't think of anything else at the moment.

cheers guys

Can highly recommend Dan, he painted my Scorpion and did the candy finish on my GT24; I think you've seen both of those in the flesh!

How's everything after the move?  Missing WA yet?
