thick clearcoat and a lot of painted branding
Sorry dude, but I do not agree at all! Looks to me like a thin clearcoat on the Felt. The 52cm Cannondale is already lighter, so there's no need to remove paint etc. ;) ... BUT if you do this on 54cm Cannondale and set the finish equal to the Felt, the Cannondale will be a few grams lighter, even as a size 56cm!
You’re fighting a number of losing battles here
I'm not fighting at all, as I'm not the one trying to speak evil of offered items. It is completely irrelevant for what price you or somebody else buy your frames. I have set a price for mine. Either you are interested in buying at this price or not.
FTFY
And I agree
