Ok trying to deliberate whether to rechrome my stanchions on my later type NC30 forks or is there anyone out there with some that don't need it! Which other NC models will be the same like the 29 maybe? Also recommendations for companies and cost at present they are completely stripped.

TiNi coating for gold look, expensive though i hear

i would like to know this too.
get the stanctions coated black and the legs coated ohlins gold (for the CRM250AR)

My guess would be to find a local reputable electro platers and ask their advise.

It's not electroplating,I think it's metal spraying,
I use these probably one of the best around,

It's not spraying at all. It's a 3 stage plating process. First is a flash copper coat, then a nickel coat then finally the chrome coat.

Oh, and that website doesn't work

FWIW, I use Ashford Chroming in Kent

Philpots hard chrominance have had many pairs of gt750 stanchions done there very good and quick turn around

what sort of prices did you guys pay though?

So who know's who does gucci colours then like gold and nitride. It's just the lowers are away for powder coating and if you going to do it well do it nice!!

I wouldn't mind knowing about TiNi. My forks really need rechroming as despite my best efforts they're looking pretty sorry for themselves, and I need the seals doing on at least one, plus they haven't had the oil done in far too long. However, I did cheat for a short term solution, as I've just managed to snag a decent looking pair on eBay for less than the cost of having them sorted....
