ร้านอ๊อดอัพเกรด

If you’re riding around Krabi and need parts, paint, or a fast fix, head to ร้านอ๊อดอัพเกรด (Aod Upgrade) in Krabi Yai. The front racks are stacked with scooter and underbone bits—mirrors, levers, pegs, bulbs—while the back bays hum with grinders and spray guns. You’ll catch the scent of fresh paint and chain lube as the crew lines up fairings for resprays and straightens forks after little “oops” moments on the road. This is a local favorite for custom looks and practical repairs alike: crash damage, color changes, wheel and rim paint, and tidy cable and lighting jobs. They sell retail and supply wholesale, so stock turns over quickly and prices stay sensible. The team is used to travelers rolling in mid-trip—bring your bike, show the issue, and they’ll talk you through what’s possible and how long it’ll take. Find it in Krabi Yai (Mueang Krabi), an easy ride from Krabi Town. They’re open Monday to Saturday, 8:30am–6:30pm; call ahead if you’re chasing a specific part or want to book a paint slot. Thai-speaking shop, but they manage just fine with pointing-and-showing for the basics.
