Brenton C replied to Karloskar Hall's discussion Repainting bicycle"Thanks Wombat, I hadn't thought of that. It still did receive a fine covering, and I'm sure wont rust. And it doesn't detract from the final outcome anyway. Now I just have to get used to riding a bike that doesn't coast..."

Wombat replied to Karloskar Hall's discussion Repainting bicycle"I just had a look at your pix... This pic shows the bottom bracket and what you were saying about the coat being a bit thin. This would be because the powder coat works on static electricity and the powder would have been drawn to the chain stays in…"
Vujos Ostojic replied to Karloskar Hall's discussion Repainting bicycle"Your best bet for new decals is to try sign writers. I crashed my r6 yamaha and found that they were able to replicate them very well. Signcraft on Port rd, good luck"
Brenton C replied to Karloskar Hall's discussion Repainting bicycle"Just a follow-up to the above. I picked up my frame last Wednesday, and was pretty happy with the job. It cost 60$ which is a bargain for a blast and powder coat.

The guy was super friendly, so I'm going to have…"

Dahondude replied to Karloskar Hall's discussion Repainting bicycle"Hey are you chaps still happy with the sandblasting/powdercoating you got done at CPC?

Gus K said… - G'day and welcome (officially) to Adelaide Cyclists.
I/we hope you get something out of the site. Let me know if there is anything you think would be good to add,
You can write forum posts, maintain a blog, post pictures and videos (and add from YouTube) and create events to invite members to. You can join groups or start your own for your riding group, club or interest.
Please tell your cycling friends and if you are on Twitter and would like to follow @ade_cyclists and RT sometimes that would be excellent!
Cheers
Angus
