poopipe Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 anodising would require aluminium spokes wouldn't it? which would mean your wheel would break because aluminium is piss weak.however, spraying your steel spokes pretty colours is a good ideaYou're probably better off doing it after building the wheel unless you want to pay out for powdercoating cos the build process will scratch buggery out of them (well, it did when I built mine anyway) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
