Knowing I had a while laid up, not cycling to recover from some minor surgery, I sent the Pomp and the frame I built myself off for powdercoating.
Clear for my handbuilt frame (to show off the fillets) and olive green for the Pomp. I had been thinking something really bright like neon pink or green but the coater I've used before only has a basic range of colours, nothing very bright. I saw this olive green colour though and reckoned it'd work pretty well.
I did worry that it might be a touch boring without any decals though and I thought about getting some On One decals but I've modded the frame a bit (removed the rear brake fittings, tidied up the wishbone area, cleaned up the trackends by removing the eyelets, added one back in within the track end) so I wanted to put my own stamp on it and then I remembered seeing a Pomp with Brooklyn stickers.
I'd found it quite funny but didn't want to quite go down the 'fake' Brooklyn route so as seen above, got busy with the scalpel and I present, the Borklyn.
