superchicken Posted January 2, 2004 Report Posted January 2, 2004 has any body gotten there frame chromed? if so were did you get it done and has it held up with no rust? also i wonder if nickle plating would hold up better ,but maybe a big weight differnce.winter rework need to keep busy Quote
NYUK Posted January 2, 2004 Report Posted January 2, 2004 frames are hard to do,i seen duece staleys drag bike frame get done by my guy and the rust on the inside of the frame contaminated the nickel.every hole gotta be sealed every weld must be ground.to make sure the frame is sealed.chroming a frame also weakens it. hydrogen embrittlement.
