back, i now have a super bomber 26" which i'm starting restoration on this week! its missing a blue snakebelly, and the superchrome on the wheels and bars isnt great- the saddle is original but a bit ratty, few tears, so may speak to a trimming mate of mine and see what he can do for it! other than that it needs a damn good service, so best crack on! heres a few pictures

hi Marcus
saw your post about superchrome somewhere ?
place I got mine was imrprezzive finishing but not sure if he does blue?
also don't think you can powdercoat over chrome ? best to ring the coater
I know one of our guys stipped the chrome off to get it repainted, but really not sure about powdercoating
maybe another guy can confirm this

yeh, i've bought some tinted blue lacquer, which i'm going to try on the bars i think first- superchrome is tricky stuff isnt it
going to go to my local coater and ask them face to face- or ask a painter friend if he'll be able to paint over the chrome with tinted lacquer
