  • Bury, lancs or Bury St. Edmunds?

  • Also, isn't it ironic that this thread has eventually given some useful and informed suggestions..

  • Bury, Lancs. If it was Bury St Edmunds I'd have said. :-)

  • try C & G in liverpool or Andy pa on retrobike website both great jobs at a decent price

  • Where do I find this dov painter? tried searching DOV in members search but no one was obvious!

  • You have to find him at the ever moving west beers which he occasionally attends. When you get there ask ask for "the Concorde" and wink with your left eye.

  • A bit too crypic for me, colourtech it is then ! Unless anyone has a handy contact for someone to re-paint some forks?!

  • You're waisting you time with colourtech, Dov will do a better job.

  • Dov came round and painted it while I watched Secret Millionaire very happy with the job, cheap too, did it for a beer!

  • Funny that, I had the distinct impression that he was at LMNH all evening. :)

  • He must have teleported using his time machine... Or maybe he created a portal with his dual Areospoks

  • nice

  • There's a second hand bike shop in Cambridge that I think has a guy who does all kind of crazy spraypaint jobs on old bikes for promotional purposes, i forget where exactly.

  • is Dov branching out to Cambs?

  • Is anyone still spraying? I've just picked up an old beater and want to give it a bit of love

  • hi, I was also wondering if I might be able to get an old frame repainted. I'm based in Chiswick. Would be quite a simple job - just pearlescent black with chrome forks and chain stays. thanks

  • in other words, how can I get hold of this legendary Dov...

  • You don't get hold of him, his 6th sense will let him know if you are worthy and he will find you.

  • I believe asm's last batch of Aerospokes came through a bit scratched so he's a bit busy re-finishing them.

    Max Crowe is an expert bike painter. Last one he re did was a beautiful custon Cannondale track '93. wonderous

  • The Smiths - That Joke isn't Funny Anymore - YouTube

    I laughed to myself. Therefore it's still funny to me.

    Thanks, how can I get in contact with him?

  • We are all just winding you up, sorry. Do you want paint or powdercoat?

  • oh right! I thought something seemed amiss... I guess powdercoat. It's my first attempt at a restoration so I'm not too sure really. I was going to attempt the paint job myself but I don't have a dust-free, well-ventilated area that I could set aside. Except for a toilet, but a three-day wait might get quite uncomfortable. It's a 1981 Carlton Super Course reynolds 531 frame. Just need a bit of the forks, chain stays and seat stays masked off. I'm in two minds about lug-lining. Could be good as the frame has really nice lug work, but I think it can look a bit OTT
