I believe there is a powdercoating place in aldershot near the football ground no idea if they're any good or even if they are still there?

HOW MUCH, do they charge for a bike wheel?

The one in aldershot is called Aurora Powder Coating they are pretty much next door to what not antiques i think it is, just by the railway bridge

Well i rang Aurora Powder Coating in Aldershot and here's what prices they quoted me;

Wheels - £25 each including bead blasting
Frame + Swingarm + 'a few bits n bobs' - £120 including bread blasting

Pretty reasonable i think if the finish is good, i'll post some pics up when i get it all done in a week or so!

P.S Thats for black, dunno if other colours are more/less expensive...

That's half the price of what my wheels cost to get done!

If they have some sample stock and it's good quality, then the price is pretty fair I'd say.

It's usually recommended to go to a powdercoater that does a lot of bike work, since they're much less likely to mess up the masking. You don't want coating on a face that needs bare metal, or in a thread or bolt hole. But you do pay more. Solid colours, ie gloss black or whatever, tend to be cheaper than metallics by the way.
