Stanchion rechrome

(1/2) > >>

Murf:
Just stripping my forks and found the chrome on the part of the stanchions that was hidden while the weight of the bike was on the forks is worn through and the steel quite rough. So it’s a rechrome. I would use aftermarket but  can’t find any at the right price, either to expensive or to cheap.   
So it’s Philpotts £290 inc return postage, 6 weeks turnaround, or Brooks £200, return postage extra, 8 weeks turnaround.  So Brooks maybe £60 less than Philpotts when you include postage but I have no idea what their quality is like. Has anyone used them for stanchion rechroming?
 BTW HCP in north Notts have closed down.
Thanks

I didn’t know about Dynasurf, I will give them a call tomorrow and see what their prices and turnaround time are like.

Bryanj:
Phillpots have a good rep and will rechrome the top fork nuts in same price

Oddjob:
Dynasurf have stopped doing motorcycle forks for some reason. Shame as they aren't that far away from me.
