mine is almost finished. The paint is being a bitch and refuses to strip. Hopefully I'll be ready to polish by the end of the week AND parts just arrived from chainreaction! WOOOOOO
send it out to be acid dipped. Its more expensive but it works soo much nicer, when u acid dip a frame u know ir getting ino all those lil' nooks and crannies
i was thinking about getting my bike rawed so sorry to seem ignorant but can you do it yourself? and if not where would you get it done? cheers
u could try and use a chemical stripping compond, but its really messy and it burns wen u get the shit on ur skin, if ur lookin to send it out just look in the phone book for a chrome plating place they will have the acid dip tanks(they use em for cleaning shit before they chrome) be warned it is pretty expensive to send out for acid dip
u werent able to get a purple rim for the front????if u could that would be fkin sweet im still waiting for some one to anodize a frame, like as in how most hubs are coloured
