btw 70 to 'polish' a ti frame is a rip-off. ti doesn't need 'finishing'. my 9 year old ti MTB looks like new with little more than a wipe with an oily rag.
Steve I dont know an awful lot about Ti frames so Im getting educated on this site,which is all good ,but its not a polished frame its a brushed finish.There are a fair few scuffs on it which I guess its picked up over its 10 year life.So Ive just asked these guys if they refurb bike frames,they said they do a rebrushing service.
I mean Im spending around £1,500 on purchasing and getting this bike the way I would like it to look,so Id like it looking good as new.Ive only ever owned hybrids before,that are always wrapped up in inner tubes to prevent frame damage,more work horses than show bikes.So this time I thought sod it,get something decent but older,which is in need of tlc to get it back to being a really nice fine weather ride.
Mind you Ive never thought of getting it polished! How much work is involved in that? Its bound to cost a fair ammount,and would it be worth it.I have to keep my wallet in check because im now at the limit until I pay my local bike shop off,having purchased the wheels ,and running gear through them.
