On Friday Winston told me the frame was finished and ready for paint so I went to see Mario to go through it all. I ended up going for the same dark metallic burgundy as my Roberts, but with the addition of a black head tube and a barber's pole on the seat tube. Lug lining will be done in metallic black so hopefully it'll be kind of visible / subtle next to the plain black.
Basically a classic 60s / 70s paint job in slightly unusual colours... and no unicorn piss, I'm afraid.
I shall, however, be dowsing the Saffron in as much sparkly piss as I can... so fear not, champions of the unicorn.
Actually yes, at last!
