That looks mega mate - Loo forward to some riding pics on it!

That looks incredible!

Looks good that! Can't beat simple colourways!

That looks amazing mate - fair play!!

All the above are correct yes. Rides spot on, can't fault it! Only got it on eBay as each time I get a new bike it goes up for sale!

Not quite mate, if you check my profile all the bikes I've sold are above value, entices people to offer and believe they're getting a bargain- psychological selling

Haha indeed mate I do love it- this is what the king would be for! It's back for sale if anyone's interested, on pinkbike

Basically, thought I would share my latest purchase... I've had many bikes this past year, and have always ridden 20" bikes so a 24 is taking a bit of getting used to... Anyway, it is great fun and I'm not too far off my old Pb's!

I'm such a top guy, I know all the right questions to ask But seriously people, thanks for all your input! Hopefully I won't cock it up hahaha

Ok thanks for the help!

Ok sweet cheers boy! Awesome, so once the gold has come off, get it out sharpish?! Any idea how to get it a very vibrant silver with 'rubbing off' the king logos in order to buff it up before lacquer goes on? Cheers for the input people!

So you're saying the logos will go?! Yeh proper protection would be used at all times, i wasn't sure about the lasing etching as to how far down the soda actually removes markings We need a third opinion now for a deciding vote haha!

Hey people, Was just wondering whether the use of caustic soda on a king headset would remove the entirety of the paint, but leave behind the laser etched logos? And also, if this works, would a coat of lacquer retain the rawed finish- despite no paint being applied? Cheers! [PS- it's gold, and I'm looking for any other colour so if you want to swap and save the hassle of potentially ruining an awesome headset, let me know ) Haha.

Yeh that's a valid point! I would push it too far as I never land too flat, just like flowing and throwing some tricks in there haha- but cheers for the heads up!

Fair enough, i have seen that they're prone to cracking! Surely flow lines and a couple of twists over dirt can't cause it to crack.... ...surely? ...

An cheers mate fair enough! I'm a pretty smooth rider, and been riding trials and bmx for a fair few years now- so wanted to combine the two into a park and dirt combo!

Is it possible to anodise chrome? Or a very bright and vibrant silver?

Basically was just wondering what people's opinions were/ if anyone does run a zoot frame for park or dirt jumping? Mainly because I'm looking to get rid of my identiti 666 frame for something a bit more flicky and light... Cheers

My mates brother owns that, could see if he can get a good deal? haha

Yes, the RS performance blue (on the mk2) would look amazing

That looks absolutely amazing!!

By 'the good stuff' which do you mean haha- I see B&Q sell one relatively cheap... How much do you think you'd need in order to do a 24" frame? (ml or even l)

I'm assuming nitromors? And then potentially sanding? I would like to know how to get a perfect prep service too haha

Awesome, ill look into it! Thanks

This may sounds bizarre, but what sort of price are you looking at to get frames and forks anodised, as opposed to a fair few smaller parts such as bars, levers and pedal etc... Cheers
