Surely the chrome is still there, just under the powder ? I've had a few chrome bikes powdered and none had the chrome removed so all is not lost.Ben looks nice mate. Personally i'd hold out for some different brakes. I know Sawzall has some NOS gold Weinmans that would be cheaper than re-pops and then they'd be era correct then.
cheers Dan, maybe my earlier ones were bodged then I suppose i wont know unless i ever strip the powder. Still looks well nice though as white bikes do.
Long shot I know but was there a IG11 post code stamped in the BB?
I have a NOS DC 1080 and double bend lever in gold, dated 1980 Ben - with yellow cable. Was gonna go on my motomag, but fitted a coaster instead. Would look sweet on this
It was originally chrome but I fancied a white one!
I think it's gonna look mint in white ... They can't all be chrome and the same ... I've just had 2 arrive powdered blue from SBD today and they look mint and were chrome ...
