This afternoon I just picked up one of my frames from Olympic Powder Coating in Santa Ana. They did an awesome job. Got my frame back to me less than a week.

Yeah I got the orange w/ gold flecks in the top coat. I LOVE it! It was well worth the 100 bucks! And like I said the guys got it done pretty fast. Dropped it off Monday and picked it up this afternoon.

SAR_boats · 02-02-2007, 07:38 PM

Hey Ross, when you take the fork over you have to comepletely disassemble it. Just the shell of the lowers. The reason for this is the first run an electric charge through the fork to get the powder to stick then they bake the powder on in an oven for 30 min. Not good for seals and plastic parts, not to mention the oil in the fork.

Ikon Powder Coating is a good place, so is Olympic

roadkillross · 02-02-2007, 08:45 PM

ugh anyone know how to pull it apart

tkblazer · 02-02-2007, 09:01 PM

just start unbolting stuff... putting it back together i have no clue!

cru jones · 02-02-2007, 10:40 PM

My boss had his frame done at Olympic and it turned out great. On a side note, a bike shop will probably not disassemble your fork for u since it will void warranty and they will not want to be liable for any problems.

roadkillross · 02-03-2007, 09:19 AM

i didnt know it voided warranty.....maybe i wont do it. jsut get some green sharpies

Nice!
Can't wait to see it

I agree on Olympic. They used to do all the stuff for GT and it's subsidiaries (Robinson, Powerlite, Dyno, etc) back in the day.

I had them do a Chevy frame for me. No, not a bike frame, but a frame, suspension, axle, etc. for a Chevy truck that I was doing a frame-off rebuild. They exceeded my expectations.

okay, anyone know someone that can do a pink camo paint job?
