$100 for a bike frame and fork.

standard colors only? any price on the metalic? Im looking for a metalic Neon green

nice, and omfg awesome at Nas playing in the background. Do you know if their work is any good though?

haha.. yea.. I was like "WTF" with the music. Once I saw they work on rice rockets, I figured it out.. lol

still think thats a bit steep, but maybe that's fair in the city?

is it steep?

spectrum estimates $220 for a frame and fork, single color, powder coat.

in the south it's like 60-80 dollars tops, and that's with the cool colors. Powdercoating ain't anything special.

ok, then since space is at a premium in the city and everything costs more here in general, $100 seems like a decent deal.

not complainig, just thinking out loud.

don't know anything about it. just saw an ad on cl and thought i'd post it up. colorlife in LI is cheaper but this is right here in bk

It depends what they do. I have seen/had some very nice powdercoated frames and some very poor powdercoated frames. I have one that cost $60 that has runs, drips, and chipped/scratched easily. I have an $80 one that was a metallic blue sparkle with a clearcoat that has been crashed on the road and still has no noticeable scratches, anywhere.

Point is, I would find out what the quality/process is for $100, because if its as good as the frame I got done for $80, its still well worth $100. I think the clearcoat makes a huge difference, so look into it and see if thats included.

Yeah, Spectrum charges a lot. This is a $400 dollar (not including shipping) job. The quality however, is excellent - that's all powder, no decals. However, it does hide lug shorelines, so be wary. Spectrum's the best, other powder coaters can make your lugged frame look like garbage.

bump: cp finishes charges $100 for stripping and pc-ing a frame and fork. with clearcoat it's $25 more. pearl finishes are extra too.
