nayruf Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Hi Jim This place hard chromed my DT 175 twinshock legs, they also organised the courier to pick up and return the legs, I cannot remember how much it cost but the work looks first class, give them a call, Post a 'Hello' in the new members bit you might find somebody who has a better line on other chrome specialists Aj Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted August 1, 2012 Moderator Share Posted August 1, 2012 As previously mentioned, It would help if you said hello in the newbies and filled in your profile. £156 pre stripped from pittedforks LINKY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ventura Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 If your planning on sticking around Jim then why not let us know where you are? Why not edit your profile and post an intro, as others have suggested? For the forks, I used Rockrome Engineering Ltd, Liverpool. 120 quid for the pair as I remember. Good job! V.
