@mhbikesnbits What/how are you cleaning up these parts bud? They all look mint!!! :thumbs_up_light_skin_tone:

Thinking a satin chrome finish for the
shock linkage what’s people’s opinion on it example of the finish is below
-
@mhbikesnbits Satin chrome paint would look good. Is that from a rattle can? I resprayed mine in a gloss black paint and although they look good, once fitted TBH they do chip easily. Mostly due to their location on the bike, being vulnerable to stones and salt, plus ease of rear suspension reassembly. Paint is fine but I would suggest that a powered coat might be more durable???
-
@NINJA was thinking electroplated chrome, the coating should last years that way but if I was to paint I would go with powder coat
-
@mhbikesnbits Chrome is cool but very expensive, especially compared to paint or powered coat. Plus once chipped or damaged it will need a full re-chrome, which again is not cheap and takes a few weeks out of your riding time. Personally I would just paint them, at least that way if those parts gets damaged its an easy fix which you can perform yourself relatively cheaply. :winking_face: :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes: :winking_face:
