Powdercoating in the Portland, OR area?
I picked up my used frame for my commuer project and I'm thinking of powdercoating the frame. Can anyone recommend a place in the Portland area with fair pricing and does a good job? Thanks.

Class Act powdercoating. They are off of 67th somewhere, you can find them easily in the phone book.
They will strip a frame & fork as well as powdercoat the whole thing for $120. Pretty reasonable and they do a good job as well. My friend, Joseph Ahearne, of www.ahearnecycles.com uses them for all of his frames.

Yes, you would have to completely dissassemble the bicycle. This would include removing BB's and headset cups as well. I am going to be having them PC my Trek commuter a nice camp stove green in the near future.
I am heading out to talk to my frame-building buddy today - I'll ask him about the S&S conversion. If he isn't up for it, he'll know someone local who is.
