Had a mtb frame powdercoated last week at Area Powdercoaters in Montague Gardens. Finish was not as good as I thought it would be , but only cost R320.
Can be done. Need to change to a longer chain and raise the derailer. I also had to change to a wider bb. Used a 52T gear( if I remember correctly ) El Mag2010-02-23 14:44:10
