Damn, that’s painful to see. But needs must. What colors you’re thinking about?

Black GTs with yellow decals look kinda sweet no fades though.

But when you see the finish product the pain will be gon...

So common want to do something different, people will remember ;)

I like the burnt paint, can you paint the bare metal and leave the rest ;)?

Ummm... ill think about that... if i sorted all the parts then move to the paint but for now still hunting 6800 groupset..

Clear over the burnt/no paint area and build.

Paint the bare metal with a black rattle can and then build as a baller rat bike

I feel you'll folks, lets see when the time comes, leave as it is? or paint it, still up to me...

Ohh man, I feel like this frame deserves more...

...especially since you’re thinking about 6800 - a groupset far from rats.

Exactly what im thinking, now you know, anyway did you drink your coffee?

Heres the parts i had atm im collecting a wheels later just down the road of my town and the wheels fitted in the previous photo.is for sale if anyone wants it swing me a message

This should be a nice build. Built one up myself recently (bought frame on here). Blue one with used force 22 groupset I had. Excellent commuter, just need to find proper mudguards

Thats nice im very tempted on those groupset are they good comparef to 6800?

Yeah, force is good, obviously different shifting but works very well. But I’d go for the cheaper option if this is to be a commuter. Ultegra usually cheaper, 105 is well worth considering too

Fair enough i just dont get used to with the doubletap i prepared the shimano version so i think ill stick on 6800

Almost there

Raw with black 105 would look cool

I like to keep it raw aswell but riding in a winter rainy season is bad on a steel frame but we'll see

Nds is done move to the ds and fork will be tomorrow
