Sometimes, depending on the situation, but not typically.

Yes, we do offer custom design services. Comissioned labor to design something original for you will require time and most importantly, inspiration from you.
If you are in need, please let us know and also compile any and as much inspiration as you can think of. We don’t know you or your taste so the more you can provide us, the better we’ll understand what direction to go in with your unique paint job.

Depends on the bike.
Steel, Aluminum, Titanium all recieve a full strip, down to bare metal.

More often than not, your bike will be started ~3 months after your deposit is placed.
Once started, it typically takes about 7-10 days to be completed and ready to go.
