 |
|
I have an old frame that needs a new paint job, I'm hoping to build it up a budget fixed winter bike.
Does anyone know of any local companies that will shot blast it and repaint it fairly cheaply? |

I second Shoz's recommendation great paint job they spray Alloy & carbon but dont be in a rush, if its for the winter bike you should get it back for the first snow  |

| There is a guy on Little Tennis Street in Colwick that some of the Go Sports guys have been using. He's cheap and quick, but I don't have any contact info, sorry. |

If you use a random powder coaters (ie not a bike specialist), just make sure they blank off the threads in bottom bracket and headset properly as it's a ba$**** trying to get the stuff off once it's got into them!

not as far as I know, I know Dave Marsh keeps in touch, best ask him
As above, just had 3 frames done at Belmonts in Old Dalby 3 for £120 not bad quality either, just hard work to get delivery time but pestering them paid off
