I don't like the paint too, but it's functional and not for the looks. Paint has survived the fist size rocks banging on the downtube, but the cranks are pretty beaten-up.
It needs fenders to be more functional in it's current mode, but there are not many fenders which could be used with 650B Ice Spikers.
I build it to be year-round bike.

Hate the paint, totally doesn't do the detailing any service, but that bike is all kinds of awesome.
