i used LAS aerospace for cromo straight gauge tubing. They do it in imperial so wall thicknesses below 1mm start at 35thou (0.9mm) and go down from there. Pretty sure they do any length within reason, I havent looked at I.D tho.

Bonus for correct ID to use as a headtube for example
The 0.083” wall thickness 1 ½” od is probably the closest, but will be too heavyweight I’d have thought.
It’s also £8.55 a foot without vat. I just bought 650mm of headtube from Ceeway for £12.98 plus vat.
But if you do go the 4130 route, I’ve been using LAS too, service is always pretty good.

Where does one source cromo tubes of less than 1mm wall thickness in the UK. Longer than standard frame tubes.
