Is this just a crank and chainring thats been powdercoated? And anyone know what stem that is?

dudeman

sugino 75's and some cheap cannondale stem.
both powder coated.

i see people talking about powdercoating aerospokes. how is this possible? is there some kind of process that doesn't involve putting these things in a 400 degree oven?

blickblocks

I may be mistaken, but can't you get them white directly from Aerospoke?

That bike is God awful ugly. I want to shoot it into space where it can float around until it's eventually obliterated by a comet or something.

Aerospoke gets them powdercoated with a low temperature process.

i thought that about this leather-daddy the other day.
then i went home and watched "cruising"--twice.

Arent aerospokes carbon?.....maybe im an idiot, but doesnt powder coating only work on metal?

Trackstar

Powder coating will theoretically work on anything that you can heat up to 400 degrees for 25 minutes and will conduct an electrical charge.

I think that's factory direct white, and the colors you are seeing all over the internet is just spray-paint.

Well they do also come in colors:

I know you can get black or white but I just hear people talk about wanting to get thiers coated. And then I see others that have crazy colors. Just put those two together and came out wrong.

As far as doing it, I don't think aerospokes meet either of the requirements.

All I know is that last week, my girlfriend pointed to a bike that was locked up outside a library and said "Look, that wheel has five spokes and it's pink!" Upon closer examination, it was a spray-painted Aerospoke.

Aerospokes come powdercoated from Aerospoke in
white, blue, yellow, red, green, dark green, brown, and orange.
All those colors on the link are for Sulkys.

You might be able to send your wheel off to the same company that does it for them and get a custom.

so i guess aluminums powdercoatable? hence the chainring being white?

trons

sure. anything that conducts electricity and can withstand being heated to however many degrees, as someone in another thread said.

Aeroplane

Very much so. Tons of AL bike frames have been powdercoated.

Aerospokes are graphite composite... like batman's mask.
