Powdercoating is done in solids, candies, chromes, and high-temps. Makes parts shockingly beautiful and shockingly weather-resistant. Contact us to for color samples.
Due to the utmost necessity for clean, bare metal, powdercoating is usually paired with sandblasting, unless you've got access to your own, or the part is new. However, there are some ways you can save on the blasting.
We sandblast parts at an hourly rate. Parts will be returned free of rust, paint, powder, and really anything else.
We use a few different types of media - aluminum oxides, walnut shells, or plain old playground sand - depending on the project.
We can make you custom decals in a selection of inks and materials.
Custom Decals
We can print you out just about anything you can come up with, but will need some details like dimensions, RGB colors, etc.
Repro Decals
If you can get the original decals off the piece and slap them on a piece of cardboard, as long as they're in reasonably okay shape, we should be able to repro them. We're also building up a library of high-quality scans, so you can check to see if we've already got it.
We've built engines with all of the major Puch kits, from 50cc to 74cc, as well as Sachs, Minarelli, & Motobecane. We can help you out for cheaper than most.
Case boring & matching
Case boring for the big kits, matching transfers if it's your first time or you can't get hold of a dremel.
Engine rebuilds
Bearing removal & pressing, seal installations, clutch bell shimming, blueprinting/chamfering/ring-gapping new kits...is no problem. Engine builds will include carb tuning, timing, and testing with temp guage and oxygen sensor, for maximum potential.
We drove way out into the middle of nowhere and met up with a Motobecane lifer who grew up riding AV88′s in the Bahamas. Sheds full of 50v frames and parts .. then he took us down to his basement, piles of nos AV88 and 7 parts, various AV88 bikes, some other crazy stuff that only Rebel Moby would probably know. Thank you again for the immense generosity, we will make sure everything has a bright future ahead of it.
About 3 hours of sleep, cops chasing us around Albany the night before

There were about 20 50v frames in the sheds, and then this one Batavus with amazing tail light. Fuck why didn't i buy this
I am admittedly pretty ignorant on Motobecane bikes, but yea
NOS
Pre-saber saber
Infinite speed
He had built this bike up as an exact replica of how Bahamas kids styled their bikes back in 70's.
Random diner on the first floor of someones house was good

I bought this General 5 star V1 30mph for 75$ a month ago, it was complete but completely disassembled in a box. Been working on it 10 minutes at a time here and there, finally had some time to put some real work on it yesterday. Engine passed a leakdown test with flying colors, sounds and feels perfect, but I effed up and used the wrong/too much tranny oil for slllowwww takeoffs, going to Tractor Supply today for some NDSAE30. Both brake shoes were disintegrated, rear uses a huge drum, I think MB5 size actually. Got a mamba coming tomorrow. Gotta finish wiring, cut the bars/cables, and fill up the forks n see if they hold oil. Gonna try and get to 40-45mph on stock cylinder but I’d love to rebuild the engine just to check it out. Budget v1! Sorry for blurry video oil on my phone
This just performed flawlessly at Whiskey Business and now it’s ready for a new home. Even did a little off-roading with it just to make sure it lived up to its name.
Less than 50 miles on this, used it at the very end of my E50 Gila’s lifetime (now its tentatively getting modded for Derbi & gonna use my 24TM). Worked well, everything on it is like new and unabused.
