Hi, I inquired at a few LBS's about removing all of my components for a frame powdercoat and then having them reinstalled after the powdercoat but they are all consistent in charging overhaul rates for the job. That's $100+. Does anyone know somewhere less expensive to have all of the components removed and subsequently reinstalled? I don't have the time right now to do it myself. Thank you.

$100+ to remove and reinstall everything is a compartive deal. Do you understand how much labour is involved with doing something like this?

Yes, I do. I just thought someone knew of a place that had less expensive rates. I've accepted the $120 charge.
