Painting the frames of historical bicycles
Robert Štěrba & Co., which is the only paint shop specializing in painting bicycle frames in the Czech Republic, was opened soon after 1989. We apply any type of coating to all types of frames, including removal of the old paint.
For example, when painting the frames of historical bicycles manufactured, e.g. 100 years ago, we use special sealants that suitably supplement the corroded material. These paints (mostly black in colour) can be given a patina to achieve various degrees of the appearance of deterioration or age. This method is especially useful for machines where the other components exhibit certain indications of deterioration.
We are capable of mixing and preparing any shade of transparent or metallic colours for painting newer, especially sports bicycles. We also manufacture copies of labels that are applied under or over the final coat of paint, as required
