[quote="andyindo"]+1 on both Stephen and Shelbyart...
cheers all who replied. a special thanks to stephen@fiber-lyte for turning me on to shelbyart! we talked today & he accepted my project! i'm so stoked! my frame is on its way to him. it'll take about 10 days to ship from china straight to shelbyart. then he reckons it will be approx 3 weeks from when he receives the frame, to delivery to me.
i also got a reply back from altamura. so props to Beancouter for that. they sent me some very outstanding samples of their work. they have a quicker turn around time because they're a bigger shop (3 branches). but i'd already sealed the deal with shelbyart.
the members on this forum ROCK! thanks again you guys!

I had a Chinese cx resprayed by ooey custom paint - they are absolute genius! Check out their Facebook page for some of their work. Really nice guys too. More pictures on my other thread.

Just reserecting this thread^
I'm currently looking at Ooey Custom and Addicted Bikes for a carbon frame and colour matching seatpost & cockpit.
Does anyone have any experience with them and longer term reviews?
Main thing i was looking to do was keep the weight down and ensure the finish is as hard as a factory finish.
Thanks!

I have had my Ridley Helium resprayed by Dave at Addicted and have recommended him to a few friends too as it was a great job.Bobbyc123 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 20, 2022 2:54 pmJust reserecting this thread^

Really good to deal with and does a really nice finish and at a reasonable price too, I would certainly use him again.
Also recommend Donna at DH Airbrush in the NEast as she also does very good, well priced resprays.
Great to have a review for Addicted. May i ask how long ago you had your bike done, and how the finish is holding up now?Guevarca wrote: ↑Fri Oct 21, 2022 6:29 amI have had my Ridley Helium resprayed by Dave at Addicted and have recommended him to a few friends too as it was a great job.Bobbyc123 wrote: ↑Thu Oct 20, 2022 2:54 pmJust reserecting this thread^

What kind of costs were you looking at?
Just over a year ago and still looks great with its new owner. Pricing around £500 I think from memory
