Services - things we do

Frame repairs

From the smallest crack to complete frame failure… we’ve very rarely come across something we can’t fix. In fact we’ve repaired almost 7000 frames (as of Nov 2011) so we’re pretty confident about repairing yours.

Getting your frame to us and back again

No matter where you are in the country, getting a frame to us and back home again is so simple it’s almost like… well… it’s almost like riding a bike.

Painting & Powdercoating

Whether you’re sprucing up a commuter or a race bike, restoring an old beauty, or just want something a bit different. Nothing does the trick better than a new paint job… and there’s no better paint job than the one you’ll get from us.

Polishing & Plating - Nickel & Chrome

For when you want something SO flash and shiny it’s almost illegal.

Restoration - General

Restoration does not have to mean returning a frame to a perfectly original and “show-quality” standard. It could simply mean “doing it up” and getting it just the way you want it.

Restoration - BMX

Whether you want your frame traditionally painted, powdercoated or plated (nickel or chrome)... if you want invisible repairs and an absolutely authentic, original and show-quality finish you really do need to talk to us.

Brake mounts - Disc

We custom make & fit our own International Standard disc brake mounts to just about any frame you can throw at us… hardtail, dual-suspension, Aluminium, CrMo, steel and Titanium.

Brake mounts - Caliper, canti and “V”

Want to run “V” brakes on a road bike? Want to swap to 700c or 29” wheels? Want to change from caliper brakes to cantis? Then you’re going to have to do something about your brake mounts - and we can sort all of that for you.

Derailleur hangers

We repair all hangers, even the non-replaceable & non-weldable ones. We even convert frames to allow them to use replaceable hangers. Why? Because it’s a good idea… because we can… and because it seems no one else wants to.

Bottom bracket thread

We can fit a brand new thread in your frame’s bottom bracket shell… one side only or both (depending on what’s needed). And you’d never even know it had been done! Available for Aluminium, Titanium, Carbon Fibre, Steel & CrMo frames.

Fabrication & Machining

Besides our great range of products for the Australian cyclist, we also specialize in making one-off, handmade bits and pieces - usually for the express purpose of getting a customer out of trouble.

Fork Steerer tubes

We can straighten or extend or completely replace steerer tubes in both rigid and suspension forks… everything from road through to long-travel downhill forks. Not all forks are suitable, but if yours is then it’s 100% safe and guaranteed.

Custom shock mounting hardware

Sick of “clunky” rear ends? Bending standard shock mounting bolts? Or do you just want to fit a shock that was never meant to go into your particular frame? You may want to consider getting us to make you a custom mounting kit.

Things that are stuck

Seat posts, stems & quills, pedals, cranks, bottom brackets, bearings & bushes (both whole and broken)... it’s amazing how often we’re called upon to remove something that’s simply “stuck”.

Thread repair & replacement

Even on the most basic bicycle there’s a lot of threads… often they’re nice, soft aluminium threads with steel bolts being screwed into them. If they happen to strip out we can fix them all.

Horizontal dropouts

Personally, we figure gears were invented for a reason, but if you’ve decided to simplify your riding to only a single speed we can convert your frame to horizontal dropouts for you.

Training wheels - for adults & disabled

We’re not talking flimsy, little things you find on bikes for kiddies. We’re talking both standard and custom made sets for full sized adults on full sized bikes.
