I have to say, I'm very surprised at seeing any bad reviews at all on here for this company - some people are never happy and complaining is their raison d'être.
Armourtex took my very average white Charge Grater 3 and turned it into a sexy, hot pink, orange and black beast. It wasn't particularly cheap, but I didn't want cheap - I'd have done it myself if I'd wanted to save money. Max, who did the tech work, couldn't have been more helpful and showed me how to do some useful maintenance tricks. Even recommended a couple of more local places to me for minor repairs if I needed them, rather than coming all the way back. He also gave me a lot of really useful info on tyres, and clearly knows his stuff. The reviewer who said it's inconvenient to get to must have a very low travel threshold - it's literally 4 mins walk from Hoxton Overground. Yasmin was very helpful and friendly, and kept me informed of progress along the way.
The bike looks amazing, and it got a complete strip-down, rebuild, and service, so it's nonsense to suggest that you need to have your bike completely stripped before you bring it. That is actually the exact reason I brought mine here, as I had been told by another place I'd have to do this and I don't have time.
I will be popping back there anytime I feel I need some more customisation, and I would use again in an instant.
