What ever the problem with your old frame, we may be able to help you
Give your old frame a new lease of life
We can repair any steel lugged frame
We use Reynolds tubing for all our repairs. Reynolds 531 and Reynolds cro-moly fork blades.
Most repairs/alterations can be carried out within a week, but please check before you drop the frame off. Obviously if you require a respray, this will add to the time.
This pricelist is for lugged steel frames only. If you have a fillet brazed frame please call for a quote because more work is involved.
We do not replace tubes or drop-outs on welded steel frames as it is uneconomical. Unlike brazed frames tubes can't be easily removed from a welded frame, on top of this the new tube would have to be fillet brazed which is also labour intensive, so it is not economical to do this kind of repair. If you are unsure if your frame is welded or not please bring it into the shop so we can inspect it. Adding braze-ons is mostly unaffected, just refer to our pricelist for braze-ons.
All frames must be stripped of all parts, however we can remove the headset cups and bottom bracket for you. As long as they can be removed easily, there is no extra charge. We can strip and re-assemble your cycle if you wish. We charge £70 labour (plus parts) for this service. The bike will be stripped down and reassembled with new cables, grips, bar tape etc and any other parts required.
Lugged Steel Frames
We have full frame building facilities on the premises. If you require a repair or alteration to your frame, you will find a price here. If what you want isn't on our pricelist, please don't hesitate to ask.
