• Really not sure how to mask between the top tube and bottom bracket to be able to paint the seat tube pink. The bike paint job I based it on is lugged, so it gives it an easy edge to change paint colours / designs.

    Any suggestions?

    I’m thinking I could do a fade, then splatter some black and white onto the pink, and a little bit of pink onto the black/white.

  • I think bike cad lets you print out tube cutting profiles on paper.. Maybe you could do something similar, but cut in vinyl?

    I'd be happy to provide you with a vector/dxf file if you decide on a profile for the masking.

  • looking great so far!
    I'd be tempted to do a straight line a couple of inches up from the BB interface rather than faked lugs. I reckon it would look visually cleaner (and easier to mask as well)
    guess it depends on how far up the seat tube the black/white paint job goes?
