I am looking to refurbish this bike. First of all I am a newbie and hopefully the members of the forum will help me complete this project. I am currently attempting to strip down the frame to its bare parts.
I am having trouble removing the seat clamp.
Are there specific crank removers/bottom bracket removers that I need to purchase. I am also looking to buy a work stand.
I need advice completely removing the down tube shifter mounts since the material of the frame is aluminium unlike most of the tutorials/videos/post which remove them on steel frames. I see many written posts about removing them, many of which say that you 'should leave them on' however they must go. I can't stand them.
After that, I will need to paint the frame, I am looking into different ways and methods. Any suggested locations I should go to paint it? What method of painting should I use on the aluminium frame? Should I paint the frame myself?
Thanks for any contributions to this thread in advance.

How should I go about
- removing downtube shifter mounts (I know that many people will just say ''leave them on/put a cover over them'' but I just want them stripped off completely!)
- painting the frame
The frame is aluminium and there doesn't seem to be much advice/videos/topics with this materials in comparison to steel so any guidance would be much appreciated.

I need inspiration for what I am going to design next year for my A2 project.
I could build a outdoor space or a new inventive product interior design, architecture, basically anything!! (model scale)
Real life situations are good also, for example if a shop was getting refurbished, I would have to design the floor plan/layout. If a building was getting demolished, I would redesign a whole new building.
It doesn't have to do with cycling also.
Any ideas/help/contribution will be much appreciated!

If anyones interested in purchasing a Ricoh GR1
-
I have 3 Ricoh GR1's which are at a trusted repair centre in Germany.
I can only afford for 1 camera to be repaired.
Would anyone be interested in purchasing the other cameras after they have been repaired. So the cameras will be in fully tested and working conditions.
So just before I ask them to fix and send just the 1 camera and the other 2 faulty ones.... does anyone want the others?
The price will be £250 each. The payment must be made soon so I can let the company know and forward their payment all in one. Repairs will take about 2 weeks.
Please inbox me if you are interested.

Geared, STI shifters I believe they are called. So there is no need for the down tube shifter mounts, I just want to get a saw and hack them off I just want that nice clean look. :) i will be keeping everything else for example, the cable guilds.
Thanks for your help so far.
