  Armourtex won't be able to do a two-tone effect on the front triangle like you have pictured. I've asked them about masking to do two colours before and they said they won't do it. They'll spray pretty much anything in one colour though!

  Damn...

  For a decent respray i'd probably recommend Argos or Colourtech. But maybe you could get Mario Vaz to do it, he'd probably be much cheaper than the other 2?

  yeah, but having read about experience with jobs done by Mario, I am not quite sure
  Argos is sky high expensive and I do not think they do powdercoating. Enamel is not the best option for downhill frame though

  Hi,
  First of all it is not a singlespeed frame but I nevertheless I would appreciate your help.
  I need to do some quality powdercoating job on my yeti 303 frame to have the following effect:
  

  I wonder whether Armourtex would be able to do this. I will try to visit them next week to discuss, but comments would be nice.
  We are only looking at the front triangle of the frame. the rear one is just polised aluminium so there in no need for powdercoating.

  Thanks

  Ps. When I was very young, back in Poland I was riding a singlespeed bike called "Wigry 3" and that was so much fun, maybe I will have singlespeed bike some day :)
