Nearly finished my first fixed build! Just need to get it put together
I know it's from a few pages back, but a TT-style brake would be better than a cross top on those bars.
Will that not peel and flake off when in contact with the chain?
Rattlecan alu-primer + blk?
I'd have thought powder coat would be the best option for not flaking as its quite plasticky and hard wearing. If there's an obvious ridge on the chainring I'd be tempted to get a sharp knife and cut a line around where the paint section will wear off. Then it shouldn't pull off further down.
Or you could mask.
Ultimately though if its for CX surely none of it matters that much anyway.
^ I think it's actually a short back ;)
