Early Dax front fork tubes
Hi out there

i was wondering if any of you guys/gals have ever had to get your front fork stanchions re chromed? as mone seem to be rather worn. Im havin a lil bit of a pickle in getting someone to do that as they seem to be difficult to sort out as they have the little stays sticking out at the bottom where the mudguard goes. Does anyone have a reliable source for chroming??

Thanks

The form and shape shouldn't be a problem, you can get almost everything chromed out, even your engines crank cases for example.

Hi, I had mine re chromed recently without any problems. they were done by Nyphos, 25 Hope Street, Crewe Cheshire their phone number is *****. I have used this company over many years for the chroming and zinc plating of parts off all my bikes and they are very reliable.
