Anyone on here ever had anything anodised and if so by whom and where are they.

I have some Araya Aeros I'd like anodising a diffferent colour than silver. I've already stripped and polished them.

That looks like some good work there. What sort of prices do they charge.

All of this plus an extra chainwheel cover cost ~£130 (including postage) however this included the stripping and polishing and most of the expense was in the 8hrs each they spent polishing the rims (apparently the spoke holes are a pain in the arse)

so if youve done yours this i would assume the cost would be greatly reduced. end result was this-
