Hey dudes

I am just waiting get a bike lift so I can take my wheels off, to get them powder coated, im up for most takes, bar taking off the tyres and removing/replacing the bearings,

cheers in advance,

is that your company! lol

thats who are going to do my Wheels, but I was given the impression I would have to dismantle my own wheels hence the post,

quite happy to pay extra to get that done :)

Not mine but my brothers. Mention "Cuffy" and you might get a discount.

Interesting. Keep me posted. I'm over in W. Bassett and also need my wheels powder coated.

I was recommended Steve (Cuffy's brother) by a friend who had some work done, so have no doubt that the powder coat will be a good job, and was quoted a good prices,

but I was told I would need to remove discs and bearings etc myself, hence the post,

fairly straight forward to strip down wheels providing you have the tools to do it..do all my own work on my bikes,would be happy to help if you need it..

Hey Big_al

Thanks for the offer might seriously take you up on it ;)
Im waiting to order my bike jack/lift the only other things I'm missing other than that is a decent torque wrench(never sure which ones to get) and a bearing puller oh and a bench err oxyacetylene set - gas welder - mig welder ha ha yeh I don't have much really , small chest of spanners that's about it, in fact my BT tool box is prob more useful lol

Don't forget the chinese screwdriver...

Them! I have in abundance :) also known as if at 1st it don't work beat the **** out of it jolly stick he he

Or make do with 'made up' tools

My lever arm for my 3T trolley jack is ideal for knocking wheel bearings out of wheels as its 'bang on' the right diameter!
