Im just wondering after seeing the "Something abit special" thread that when i got my V10 in September would i be able to send the frame to Santacruz or somewhere similar and have it sprayed the syndicate team colours ? AKA, Like Steve Peats or Greg Minnars ? Sorry if its been asked before, couldnt find anything on it. Thanks

Dont think so somehow, 1. It would cost an F'Load 2. For advertising reasons, they dont want people thinking your one of their team riders  .. Although you can get the ex team frames off them occasionally in on the bay

argos cycles are a good place to get bikes sprayed as you can see from the bikeradar one above but they charge loads.

If you mean me, then no.  Just thought, Will it not be illegal to have it sprayed the team colours anywhere other than through a contact of santacruz ?

No, but the skulls and roses blend between the black, white and red is actually a sticker. You'd have to be a good artist with experiance of doing such things (which you clearly are not 'cos you started a thread asking how to do it on SDH...) and it would cost a bomb to get it to look good. Why not go for something more individual if you must get a custom job - speak to your sprayer about what you want and let them suggest what they can do.
