  • Gaz- have you let the paint cure since Mario did it? It will chip very easily for the first couple of weeks so probably best to leave it before building. I built my Merckx too quickly after he painted it and always regretted chipping the paint.

    I haven't got all the bits yet anyway, so at the moment they're just sitting on my sofa. Paint seems quite tough though, I accidentally swung the bars into the top tube and nothing happened. According to Mario, curing times are a myth; the paint is as tough now as it's ever likely to be.

    You should have gone out to the woods and chopped down a tree instead, or anything else the doesent included a respray of the frames, (ugly color to)
