locogato11283 Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 looks like crap to me ... but thats just my .02cents id poweder coat it and forget it ! gloss black is a pain in the ass to keep clean much less a chrome frame.... I agree. It looks like that shitty metallic silver bomb can stuff. Fucking ghetto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2strokeshees Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 I didnt think it would look good reading the op. After seeing the yellow one, damn, doesnt look bad at all. Post pictures if you do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlevasseur Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 I wouldn't chrome a frame for a few reasons. One being that it would be pretty spendy, two being that it would chip pretty easily especially if the bike had any power from the frame flexing. Also the frame would begin to rust in the tight spaces much like stock a-arms that have been chromed. Just my .02 cents though.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camatv Posted January 28, 2012 Report Share Posted January 28, 2012 i have seen 2 chrome frames up close one was a full drag chassis a long time ago and the other one was i think that yellow bike ther BUT it had full axis shocks, and way more detail in the chassis itself. ask gary GDUB on here about his homie's chrome framed bikes they are very nice looking.. if your looking for show quality then yea chrome is the shit! chrome powdercoat is total bullshit UNLESS your looking for a polished faded silver look. to me there is sooooo much you can do with powder for certain effects that its not worth a single coat or color scheme. i acheived an amazing effect combining 3 differnt coats, and flakes on my wife's bike. its really cool if you can think outside the box on powder.
