If you go up the A259 from Bognor cross the A27 Take the first left, they are a few 100yards on the left

Keep Powdercoationg in Uckfield:

They have my frame and fork lowers at the mo, I expect to get them back later this week. They were nice to deal with so far and very professional. I'm having it done in 2 pack paint but they do powder also. When the frames back I'll be posting pics and a review so you can get an idea of how good the quality is. I'm expecting it to be an excellent finish. Price quoted for frame and forks in 2 pack was £60, Including shot blasting the frame and hand striping the forks. Seems like good value especially if the finish is as good as I expect

Got the frame back on Friday. Quite happy with the finish but its not 100% perfect. They masked up the frame by placing round stickers over the ends of the headtube and BB shell. This means the end edges of the tubes didnt get properly coated with paint. Its a little disappointing but noting a can of Halfords paint cant fix. The overall finish is really nice though, super glossy and shiny. Im very happy with it. I would recommend them but also suggest pointing out that its better to mask the headtube and BB shell by placing a rolled up piece of card inside.

Look for the '97 Kona Cindercone hotrod thread for a pic.

Yes, I think it's Quarry Lane (same road as Covers).

Thanks I have found it but now son has changed his mind after buying frame now hes thinking it may be better to try and find a complete orange clockwork or even c16. So may have stripped 93 clockwork frame up for grabs soon.
