A mate wants to turn his sons old bike into his daughters new bike by respraying it and tarting up some of the components rather than shelling out for a whole new bike.

Any idea of the cost of getting a 20″ kids bike resprayed?

Any recommendations in or near Southampton?

More expensive/effot than selling it and buying a girls bike?

There’s a place in Woolston that powder coats frames for £30ish. Several of the local gang have used them with good results.

Not sure abut the cost/benefit which is why I am asking.

Thing is the bike is okay and in good condition but kids bikes never resell for much

Mostly – Can you remember the name? CiderInSport did tell me but I had had a drink and have now forgotton
