I have Started to take parts off the bike tonight. Just the bottom bracket forks and bearing cups but will have to go and get a cup removal tool. The crank bolts were a absolute nightmare. At one point i had to stand on the allen key :shock:
Oh well started now so no going back.
I have considered powder coating as a cheaper option but i am going to wait and see what the results are like of the paint strip first.
Thanks for all your advice.

Yep, that brings back some painful memories. Just wait until the sanding/wire-wooling/polishing starts :shock:
Good luck and keep going

Given that lots of painters would powder coat a frame for £30-40 and they would media blast it first, I wonder how much they would charge just to media blast one? Maybe £15? It would still need to be polished, but wouldn't that be a worthwhile investment to get all the paint out of the nooks and crannies?
