The M de Porres decal is mildly obscure. I like custom frames with random names on them so when I've had unknown frames in the past I've tended to badge them up with relevant saints - so I've had unknown Italian frames badged up as Madonna del Ghisallo and San Geminiano.
Martin de Porres hails from Lima, as does this frame, and he's patron saint of landlords, public health workers, and all those seeking racial harmony which I'm pretty happy to get behind and seems fairly relevant for a bike that took most of 2021 to build!
