MATTDUB: The finish around the bottom bracket is ok. They also chromed inside the BB a little bit, so I hope the bearings fit.  :-\

This frame was badly corroded in certain areas, especially on the rear triangle around the welds, and HEP's didn't polish it out as weill as hoped.

Perhaps I didn't emphasise this when I placed the order. If any of you use HEPs and your frame need this tell them. Probably charge extra though.

JIMWISE 68: Yeah they stripped the old chrome off, but I removed the old stickers and made sure it was grease free before sending down.

Looks HEPs will be busy re-chroming member's frames, etc for the next few months!  :D
