    I live in Trowbridge. If you go up to Stevens bike shop long Canal Road (by Lidl) they have a book of local companies they deal with re chroming, upholstering, etc..

    Wasn't there a thread about this a little while ago? Quite a few people were interested, but there were minimum charges which put people with small parts off.

    You could see if anyone else wants anything done and go in together, you might get a slightly better deal that way.

    I think they do all the prep-work for you?

    Need a few bits chroming myself but as Loops said there is a minimum fee for small bits & pieces...

    They are NOT cheap, but you know the quality is there.
