Are you drunk?
I actually reckon the original green is one of the best bike colours ever!
Although it looks like a top bit of powdercoating!
i like the white, there is 100's of colours you can choose from couldnt find a good match the the orginal green the white makes it look like a more moddern bike. will add more pics next week should be built by then
Liking it Nathan - given a classic frame a new lease of life there. Can you send frames to them? or is delivery in person do you know - bit far from here...
not sure to be honest i bet they would do postage, you have to strip the bike and remove all bearings before it goes there.
Bloody lovely.
Well done that man.
Powder Coatings are sound, you should be able to send them stuff. They used to paint Saracen's frames back in the 90's before the brand dived in popularity and they specialise in motorbike stuff.
I've had a dozen or so frames done in the past and only a couple where it wasn't quite perfect (albeit still very good).
As nathan says you have to strip the frame down but they blast all the old paint and stickers off. You do need to blank all threads with sacrificial bolts yourself and it's worthwhile masking faces like inside the seat tube and headtube but as the blasting removes this they will re-mask before coating. on occasions the powder does get onto these surfaces so allow for a bit of remedial work yourself or a trip to a well set up shop to get the tubes reamed if you want it to be a perfect job.
The thing about going in person is the colour choices. They have a waiting room with coated metal disc samples, there are 3 walls of colours to choose from including flat, metallic and pearl finishes.
Looks really good, white bikes are the way forward...
Excellent, looks great.
That makes me want another Enduro.
Looks good, we still have 3

yea good comment st, my frame is in the bike shop at the min have the headset and bottom bracket faced and having them run the tap though the threads on the bottom bracket.
hey tracy what forks you running? i have some fox 36 van rc2 but looking to get somethink lighter not sure about what to get.
I had the 36 Talas rc2s on mine but swapped them last year for Lyrik 2 step air which I find a lot plusher for me. Kevin has 160mm Nixons on his.
Katie and Abigale have Revelation Races on their bikes
Tracey
do you think they ride better with 160mm rather than 140mm - 150mm forks?
We think they do
