£700 for a Reynolds 853 fillet brazed custom sized frame is as good as you will ever get!
You can have any paint job you want. It will just cost you extra.
We mainly paint our frames with powder coating because it's tough. When you are riding your bike everyday, locking it up multiple times a day etc, powder coating last the longest. Also have you tried getting vinyls under a powder coat?
(Because the guy at the powder coater's and I don't have a cost effective solution yet. I have been working with them for 6+ years and my frame was the 1st bicycle frame that they ever painted)
How would you suggest they go about that?
I'd appreciate the input.
If you like they can paint your bike at Lotus...
