Yeah bearings were out for anodizing but didn't have to do anything to get them back in. The tolerances only tighten by a few micron. It hasn't been an issue on any bikes I have done plus it looks pretty bad ass that it's uniform every where.

I'm hoping it wasn't any of my so called mates but not a lot of people knew about it. I think someone was just watching me and came to my home to see where I stored the bike before making a move. It was a proper job though came through the roof and out a window. Left no damage nothing.

Heard back from one anodizing shop, guy told me it wasn't worth my time, and that it would turn out bad, and usually anything that has been painted then stripped ends up looking like crap. Sooo I guess they don't wanna do it lol. So I told him id strip and polish the frame, and asked roughly how much to do it, he said they have a 175 dollar minimum charge no matter what, but he would need pics and rough dimensions to give me a proper quote. So I think ill keep asking around, because it really seems like they don't want to do it. Ahh such is customer service here in Canada!

Man that really sucks, that makes me sick that someone would steal such a beautiful machine. As for the anodizing I guess I just lucked out. I just walked in to the closest anodizer to my house and they were really cool about it. Maybe I should start a business of it and just have people send me frames lol.

Thanks man. Really like how it has turned out. You need to see it in person to truly appreciate how unique ano looks. Also it is very tough and resists scratches really well.
