Hi all

I'm thinking of giving my bike a well earned new coat

How much does this cost to get it done professionally and which companies do it ?

Any advice welcomed

Cheers C

Never used them, but reputable, if a little pricey.

Although there's probably places local to you that will do the job cheaper.

is it still in warranty? If so you will probably void it.

I just had my road bike powder coated by BettaBlast. Seemed like lovely folk and turned it around quickly. Lovely finish aswell

If its aluminium I would give powder coat a wide berth. Putting a heat treated Alu frame into an oven is not clever

Cheers all

Yeah it is aluminium and it's well out of the warranty

Good point on the powder coat heat as I did wonder about this
