Smillie Paint just re sprayed my Pugsley. He's done quite a few motorcycle paintjobs for my old man in the past. Very very good job done.
Contact here http://www.smilliepaint.co.uk/

finished pics of the Pugsley frame are here http://yodagoat.blogspot.com/2011/11/and-so-it-begins.html

If its a posh bike use Argos. For anything else try your local powdercoater. I use one in Southampton (and know plenty other people who have too with good results) for £30 a frame. They did the frame, forks and stem on my Explosif for £35.

What 40mpg said.

I was quoted £265+vat for respray of frame at argos. Took it to local powder coaters £45 cash.

I'm sure Argos would do a top job, but I couldn't justify the extra to myself. More than happy with the finish from the local guys.

ditto 40mpg.

Cheaper bikes will look great with a poder coat and they usually do or know the blast shot people too. Usually very quick, good quality.
I have a cruiser that will be seeing the powder coaters over christmas.
