Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Looking For a Quality Bike Painter Here in Northern California???

Hi All

I'm looking for a quality painter here in Northern CA. Does anyone have any recommendations? I just received my Seven ti frame and I thinking about maybe getting it painted if I can hook up with a quality painter with a reasonable price. I'm looking at Joe's Bicycle Painting in Watsonville, CA https://www.joesbicyclepainting.com Has anyone used this painter at all or any painter that you recommend in the Northern CA area. I'm based out of the Stockton/Sacramento area if anyone has any advice.

Thanks

I recently had a bike powder coated in South San Francisco. Frame and Fork $125. It was called west coast powder coating.

What material was the fork you had power coated? Can carbon be powder coated?

can't powder coat carbon. The temp required is too much.
