Hi drkdoesstrida,

welcome to the Stridaforum!

[Chrome and Bullhorn-bar Editions](https://www.stridaforum.com/t/chrome-and-bullhorn-bar-editions/633/1)

I’ve never seen a chrome Strida in reality, so it might be a stupid question:

(As far as I know the chrome-plating on aluminium is much more difficult and expensive than on metals like brass or iron.)
