This is my holidays effort.

Decided I was sick of the chrome colour that was covered in scratches and crap and put on the colour scheme I have been dreaming of for years...:rolleyes:

I think it turned out really well,

I'd like to thank Mr Plow, who inspired me to get off my ass and paint my frame with his very in depth article, and also I'd like to thank OH64 who helped me to get all the parts off and back on again!

Awesome! The new paint made it look a hell of a lot better...Put a smaller chainring up the front and you're set.:)

Nice job, looks pretty good.

I really like the chrome rim at the back, looks really good with the black frame.

Just wondering, do you plan on running brakeless, or are you going to put your brakes on later?

I did it myself.

Went through about 3 cans of primer, 3 cans of paint, few sheets of wet and dry and alot of missed riding time. So all up it cost about 75 bucks.
