Green Bay apparently hasn't moved into the 21st century(no surprise there) cuz I can't find anyone around here that will chrome bike wheels. They'll do everything else but. I need to chrome the front wheel on my old 2-wheeler that went to Carman Allen, the rear wheel is chromed so he wants the front done to match. So...do any of you guys know of a chromer that does wheels, I don't mind driving a bit to deliver/pick up...or possibly ship it. Naturally I'll remove the tire, valve stem and bearings. Needs a new front anyway.

I've looked and don't see the little identifying Mag symbol anywhere so I'm assuming our Valk wheels are total aluminum.

Already talked to Custom Plating...don't do wheels. Didn't give a reason, just won't.

Sorry Dennis, Torbleau Trikes is about 137 miles, it's SE of Madison.

Torbleau Trikes, Inc does not do plaiting but have been in business for many years. They may be able to point you to someone who can help.
