Title: current price to rechrome 2 crank arms
Post by: kalex on August 31, 2013, 11:19 PM
I had a pair of crank arms rechromed beginning of last year from a place in walsall (I think it was there anyway)

I can't find the receipt to find the cost as I had other things done also, plus it was over 18 months ago

So I wouldn't mind knowing if anyone's had any done recently and what price

Even more so if it was in west midlands or north west area

Thanks

£40 for a set of crank arms from Hockley's, they can take 3 months though  :-\

I know they were cheaper when I looked last year

But I like to drop things off and collect in person that's why I took them to where I did

Can't bloody remember whats their name though, but I think it was Animal that said to go there

Yep was ACF Howell Chrome in Walsall. Paid 35 quid 4 my last 2 sets  ;) They did a bostin job on Dordy's Profile cranks  :4_17_5: Stamping was left looking great  8) my Profiles were a right mess and they r so nice now

I got ripped then as sure it was 60, 70 or 80 for 2 crank arms. I wished I knew where that receipt was. Graham Garret was the man

They did a blinding job though, stamping was as clear as factory on mine

They did a cracking job on my full wrap 401's but I had some other things done at the same time and can't remember the price for each item

I did have emails from them with the prices but I totally cleared my email account sometime ago

I fairly sure I paid around £60 if not more as I was thinking of sending them to where jaan said but I wanted to drop them off so I went to howells
