There are not enough 'fade' paint schemes these days.

Random statement but have been thinking the exact same for a while now.
Even wondering if there's anywhere I could learn/practice with proper tools (compressor). -

ask vaz for lessons?

Proper tools aren't cheap. A decent compressor with enough cfm, a small enough tank to keep it a hobby and a decent workload capability isn't cheap. The guns are easier to choose from though.

Thought about it... but - you haven't been to his workshop, have you?
Anyone who has, will understand how 'peculiar' it would be...
...but essentially yeah, it's the only place i can think of.
I've asked him already, about doing all the 80s/90s crazy fadery, he
was a bit like: "Lol, Wut?"... so... :/ -

Rawr!
Also - rider needs a shorter stem?
Depends on the rider of course.
But those dirt drops are perfectly set-up for riding trails 'in-the-drops'. The way they are angled forward puts the centre of the riders hands ca 3cm behind the centre of the stem clamp. So its effectivily 90mm or so.
(loads of guesses for illustration, no MrTester, I'm not getting my ruler out)

Could use a longer headtube, if mortals are going ride trails in the drops of some dirtdrops.
Just sayin ;)

Actually, I was thinking that because the saddle seems a long way forward on an inline post. Maybe it's the shadows and it's not as far forward as it looks. Bike is still ace in any case.

Looks like a workable amount of drop from saddle to drop of bar for me as mine are a bit lower than that and I ride in drops most of the time.
Does that mean I am not a mortal, wow. I may need more proof before I try out my immortality, not that I don't trust you.
