Frame is back from the painters. I decided to go with a Citroen base colour called Amerindian Blue but with a clear coat with a slight red flip.
The original fillet braze job was a bit "blobby" so while they did do a bit of smoothing and filling to it, to make it fully smooth would have been quite a big task. It's not perfectly smooth but I kind of feel it adds to the character a bit. The colour flip is quite hard to photograph but it's more obvious in sunlight and at certain angles. I also got a front derailleur braze on brazed on as well as a second set of bottle cage mounts.
