Thank you for this exciting news! I was preparing for a long wait. Now I'm 
hopeful to be ready for summer riding!

Oh wow, I love the repainted headbadge—clever idea, and a flawless execution! 
Instant bookmark for my future custom. Thank you!

Re: [RBW] Timeline for a Repaint (for a friend)

2023-04-15 Thread Matthew Williams

Finally, a question I can help answer!

Back in October, Rick at D painted my forks and he did a fantastic job. RBW 
advised me to expect a four-week backlog; Rick said the turnaround was about 
two to three weeks.

Rick sandblasted my forks, matched the color, he added an accent I wanted, and 
gave me a small bottle of touch-up paint. I picked up my forks about ten days 
after I dropped them off.

My forks were a small project (as opposed to an entire frame) and I can’t speak 
for Rick's schedule, but I can say I couldn’t be happier with the finshed 
result. Rick is amazing.

[RBW] Timeline for a Repaint (for a friend)

2023-04-15 Thread Bicycle Belle Ding Ding!

No, not for me, I love my paint! But my new RivSister friend acquired a 55 
cm mermaid Platypus and she, like Heather (who dreamt of pumpkin) and me 
(who coveted raspberry), can only be truly, sublimely happy if her Platy is 
a lemon meringue yellow (with a bit of metallic). 

She will take her frame to D but hasn’t actually been able to arrange 
this yet. She was hoping it could be done rather quickly, but I suspect 
there will be a wait. Can anyone here, who has had a Rick-Repaint, please 
advise as to timeline? Are we talking weeks? Months? Several months? 

We would MOST appreciate your input! 
Thanks in advance,
Leah
