Current Projects chat and miscellany

... Am also not sure whether to get any components painted. I was going for an old school look - just paint the frame pearl white and have polished components.....

....Why not an electric blue frame with matching seat post and stem...also paint the gear levers, the chainring (a big aero Rotor Cranks thing), the headset...where does it end?...

I even caught myself lusting after chrome bar tape on this shouty red Walker....

imo less is best. Nothing wrong with electric blue, but painted components rarely works. Remember gears, canitis, etc. are all relativly fusy so you want to keep it simple.

Chrome bar tape = fail. Always.

BTW - you've done a great job there.
