I met someone a while ago during an alleycat race who had a steel frame. in the middle of the down tube there was a different color with the brand name in it, just like for example tiffosi does on their bikes and some other brands have as well. I can't remember the name of the brand he was riding. He sanded his entire steel frame except for that part. So that part looked new while the rest of the bicycle was rusted. I should have taken a picture, it was true porn.
Reeen, that bike is awesome.

example of the paint. If this was his bike he would have sanded everything that is yellow.
