I had some forks done and they came out really nice.

There are lots a good chromers about probably close to where you live, go to yell.com (yellow pages and search).

Frome ?

I'd reckon the price of having a full Somerset village done would be daft  


It'd smarten it up a bit though  


Sean would prefer paint  though

I paid £45 and that included de-chroming a 24" frame and forks and chroming the forks only. (The frame was painted elsewhere)
The finish was immaculate

Ask Kappy about their service and quality.

And they answer your e-mails!

The 3rd Time my CW was done it went to Allen Chroming and the finish was fookin lovely
Removing the "old chrome" repolishing bars, frame and forks and then chroming was all in @ £220 including postage back.
Well happy with the results and wouldn't hesitate in having stuff done there again or recomending

I always use Doug Taylor Chroming in Banwell nr Bristol, Gashead uses them also.  They have always been top notch and as they have been around for fooking years they are trusted.

Hockley chrome and top results dont go together. 

[BMX1973]

Hockley Chrome results.

[TwoBobRob]

For what it's worth, I had some pieces done by Hockley a while back and the results were first class.

He also photographed the parts beforehand and we had a long conversation regarding serial numbers/ID marks etc. All of which were irrelevant for me, but he was clearly taking that side of things seriously. I understand this is where he may have fallen down in the past.

Looked to me like he was putting the effort in now.

Ask Kappy about their service and quality.

I think Mr Kappy was happy with their results (I could be wrong on this but hopefully he will jump in at some stage).  However, yes, he did tell me about how crap their service was.  VERY slow on possibly a few broken deadline promises..

But unless Darren KAP is about to prove me wrong, I dont recal anyone ever having an issue with Hockley's results.  My F&F / bars / seatpost were stunning..

But yeah, I do get the impression they need to work on their turn around time and customer services in general.  I also get the impression their prices have gone up a truck load.  I paid approx 180 for the above 4 items and I think that was a great price.  10 months later and I think I would struggle to get anywhere near that price from them today..

It's been documented here that Hockley have fcuked up a couple of times.

He does know now how collectors on here expect their stuff to come out though. As for customer service - no    He's a blunt sort of fellow, just his way. I got on fine with him, I would advise people not to spend too much time worrying about it.

My Skyway frame was done by hockley.  Dont expect it to be done quickly, but i was happy with the results.  Seems to be a mixture of good and bad results with them.

[Darren KAP]

  Sorry Paul i would rather trap my c0-k in a door than use Hockley Chrome the biggest bunch of fookin w--kers and full of sh-t  , enough said 

  Allen Chrome    they did my Action Zone bars and are flawless it was a shame to put the decals on    and such a helpful company to deal with 

[Gashead]

I that not a repop job that would have come in chrome anyway ?

Exactly...

My parts come out mint, I always deal with Lee and Alan. They have invested in new tooling which this frame set was the first to be worked on
