Default Please help - custom bike

My Dad has been riding bikes since before I was born. Getting out to ride is his “get away.” He recently bought a 2009 Thunder Mountain custom. About 1 week ago, he was involved in a wreck on his bike. I know that Thunder Mountain closed down several years ago. I know it’s a long shot, but I am trying to find someone who was involved in painting his bike, or someone who worked for them during this time that can point me in the right direction. Now that his kids are grown, his bikes are his baby, and I’d like to have his bike repainted for him since the custom paint got trashed in the wreck. The parts have already been replaced, all I am missing is the paint.



Thanks for the help!

Any good painter should get it done. It will not be cheap.

Yes, I understand the financial aspect, that has been taken care of. I have had a few local painters reach out, but was trying to find the original painter. Thought he would like that. Thank you!

Not many that worked with for Thunder Mountain would want it known.
Find a Good custom painter that will back up their work and get it done.

They were painted by an outfit called Gunslinger in Colorado
