Hard Anodizing my EVO's
« on: August 02, 2011, 10:54:24 am »
Sup - I've done an extensive Amt of research about the problems and risks of Hard Anodizing aluminum bicycle frames. And I've picked up a few extra frames I'm willing to take the risk with.

I just cant get the idea of my favorite Old School frame in the world finished New Skool. It would make my bikes distinctive, and I'm all about the build to make them a personal expression of my aesthetic preference. It's why I'm all about Old SchoolKustoms as well.

I'm looking for the rite shop, and any forum readers or introductions to EVO Riders that have had their frames, or similar aluminum full suspension frames Hard Anodized. Aly leads or introductions by our forum members would be greatly appreciated.

Build it like you like it, ride it like there's no tomorrow and so you still can if there is!

Hard anodizing is useful on tools, but on a bike frame you'll dent the tubes before you scratch through hard anodizing. That's why nobody does it. Regular anodizing is plenty durable for a bike frame.
