    Hi all,

    Recently I bought a new bike and the frame colour/size I wanted wasn’t in stock for 3 months so I went all black with a view to maybe getting a few decals painted or transfers added. Does anyone have any experience of this and could they help point me in the right direction? I’m Wiltshire based so ideally would like to keep it fairly local to cut down on delivery etc.

     

    Cheers

    Where did you go to get all that done for £150?

    Up in the North East (Darlington), at a place called ‘Saragon Customs’ – you’d probably have to bring the bike up. I think actually it’d be more like £200 or so as I getting a couple of bikes done at the same time.

    I can highly recommend Argos Racing Cycles in Bristol  [url]http://argoscycles.com/resprays-refurb/[/url]

    I used to send a reasonable amount of work to them and always came back with excellent results.

    DIY? Loads of vinyl decals or waterslide transfers available. Or have your design cut as a stencil, and rattlecan spray. I’ve had good results with Spray.bike. It’s acrylic and doesn’t run, sag or pool round fittings. It also doesn’t creep under masking.

    If it’s carbon it’ll be an expensive job, mainly because of all the prep involved – someone has to sand all the clear coat and paint off by hand before you can begin to think about how complicated/expensive your paint will be. Probably £500+ for a single colour respray. Check these guys’ price list
