The frame was glass bead blasted then nickel plated and copper electroplated by a plating company in Derbyshire :) The bike was a gift and I didn't like the pink colour of the paint so fancied a bit of a project.

The copper will need some TLC and a good silvo or brasso now and then. Unless the tarnished look is desired. But I guess you're always insulated by the tyres ??

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
