It's a service Orange offer on a brand new bike, they'll powder coat the rims to match the frame colour (or colour of your choice) for a fee. Don't know if they offer it as an aftermarket purchase.

Unless you've got some uber niche new wheel size, or ride a kids/jump bike, your wheels will be a perfectly normal 26"...
i meant i have smaller rims 317 lol
ah so powdercoat the rims....hmmm should i go for this luminous colour lol... i do like it tho you,ll see me coming from miles away lol.
so would this powder coat last ? lol how long is apiece of string..lol.....
never been down this route before its anew one for me... 😉
oh would this involve taking off the spokes too then
Lol..

Lol.
Yes they will have to remove the spokes aswell, no need for painted rims IMO, black only. It's practically the law!
Lol
You could have the wheels taken apart by the lbs/orange and get your existing rims coated by a powdercoaters/orange then have them rebuild using the current spokes and nips.
Shouldn't be too much hassle but don't expect change from £100.
I am assuming that rims won't warp when coated by a normal coaters. Anybody had this done? I seem to remember swiftacular had some done pale blue for his wife's chamelion.
Just spray them with the tires.
LOL
black only. It's practically the law
I wish you could still get bare, polished alloy, like my old Campag Mirrox... 🙁

Don't do it. It looks crap. Nice bike though.

Yeah polished runs were blingtastic.. Had them on my Hi-Tech Kylami...
Do you actually have any idea how a wheel is put together?

Or speak to Orange. Or get some Nukeproof rims built up. Or develop some taste.
