Dave . . . I did make enquiries a few months back but my timing was bad as they were undergoing relocation into bigger premises. Initially, they quoted up to £120 to do the frame, fork and bars (from memory) and was subject to viewing before hand

They specialise in the custom car and motorcycle sector and I've seen their work which is 1st class :coolsmiley:
