This is for a frameset in a single colour, including both frame and fork. Custom bike painting logos would be an additional cost, as noted below. 

This assumes all components have been removed. If you're unable to remove certain parts, we can assist with that, although there may be an extra charge for this service (see below). 

All metal frames will undergo our paintwork services, which include grit blasting, priming, base coating, and final lacquering, followed by polishing for a brilliant shine.

This is specifically for a frame set, focusing solely on the frame itself, without a fork included. For those interested in custom bike painting, it's essential to consider bike respray pricing to achieve the best results with your paintwork services.

Similar to our other offerings, we provide specialized services for a set of forks, including custom bike painting and comprehensive paintwork services. For detailed bike respray pricing, feel free to reach out.

I offer hardtails at the same price as a road-type frame, but full suspension bikes tend to be a bit more expensive due to the back end. This pricing assumes that the frame is dismantled and that bearings and other components have been removed, excluding the fork. For those interested in custom bike painting or seeking quality paintwork services, it's essential to consider bike respray pricing as part of the overall cost.

I don’t make any money on these custom bike painting projects, but they’re really fun to do. They’re perfect for hand-me-down bikes! Why not let your kid come up with a design? While I can’t promise to match it exactly, I’ll certainly use their ideas for inspiration.

Lil’ Kidz Bikez are the small single-speed models. If you have a child’s bike with gears, my bike respray pricing for those is £295 due to the additional size and work involved. This price includes dismantling and reassembling the bike after the paintwork services are completed.

Every frame is unique, and various custom bike painting techniques vary in complexity. For instance, masking can be time-consuming, while applying a fade is generally quicker. Let us know your specific needs, and we can provide you with a clear idea of the bike respray pricing based on the time involved. 

Logos are also priced on an hourly basis. For instance, a single colour downtube and headbadge would typically cost around £150, but please be aware that creating an image to work from may require additional time related to our paintwork services.

Chromacoat paint is a remarkable choice for custom bike painting, as it changes color depending on the viewing angle. Although it requires a basecoat, typically black, and comes at a higher cost, the stunning effects it creates make it worth the investment. If you're considering bike respray pricing, keep in mind that there are numerous beautiful color combinations available. Ultimately, it’s an impressive option compared to standard paint and enhances paintwork services significantly.

When necessary, we can colour match paint for your custom bike painting, whether it's for a complete respray or touchups to existing paintwork services.

Prep for a carbon frame varies and must be done by hand. Due to the larger, rounder tube shapes, it’s often not necessary to remove all the existing paint. Instead, you can focus on ensuring the surface is smooth and flat, which could take anywhere from one to three hours. Removing all the paint from a carbon frame might take five to six hours or even more, but for my bike respray pricing, the maximum I charge is £250 for a standard frame and £350 for a full suspension mountain bike frame. Custom bike painting can be quite fiddly!

Whether your needs are simple or complicated, you'll encounter considerable masking to address all the vents. Therefore, for custom bike painting or other paintwork services, you should expect bike respray pricing starting from £225.

If you need your bike dismantled and rebuilt after custom bike painting, we can take care of that for you. The bike respray pricing may vary depending on the setup and condition of the bike. Generally, it takes about half an hour to an hour for dismantling, and 2-3 hours for rebuilding. Internal cabling and the removal of seized components may extend this time. This timeframe also applies to any mechanical work included in our paintwork services.
