Anyone have any experience of re-furb jobs by Vernon Barker. Just got a nice looking quote for some mods and re-spray. It's either there or Mercian I think to keep it local for me.

I had a broken Tinbred frame repaired by Vernon. He did a very good job and the turn around was quick too.

He colour matched a page of the Financial Times I sent him 🙂
Good colour match but the paint isnt that really very thick in places.
