Obviously this is more appropriate for UKRM but I don't have time to read that any more and anyway, those with any knowledge worth a fuck read Classic. Modern sprotbike wheels. Is expoy powder coating with the subsequent heat treatment OK? Chap in Belfast who paints wheels told me the heat side was a nono. Vested interest obviously and IME painted wheels bleach out when attacked by strong cleaning chemicals and it flakes on the rim during tyre changes. Have had K100 wheels PC'd in the past but then again they are cast neutronium and not super light ally/magnesium. Similar question about ally beam frames. I'd quite like the Gixxer thou frame PC'd too and I wonder just how much heat is used and for how long.
