Some pretty impressive skills must have gone into making those, but, I'm not sure I'd want to be seen on one of those abominations...;)

When I stop falling over so often I would love to have a custom paint job on my bike.

I think many standard factory painted Colnago frames must qualify as bike art - look at this Geo! Imagine the time and effort to paint them! Each one unique!

I personally wouldn't want it on my bike but I think it's pretty quirky.

Start with something small

Small as in a small part on the bike or small artwork?

 

That is pretty cool, but I'd be **** scared to scratch it

Yeah agree but I've accepted that scratches will happen. I'm buying into the delusion it gives my bike character - like a log of our adventures together.

I'd also be scared I would scratch something thats so well done.....small as in choose just a section of your bike and put something there. Favourite logo or your unique pic/design.

Scars make good stories, make sure you and the bike have matching ones... ;)

Like a girl I dated back in the day in high school, her and I have matching scars from doing something stupid...and I am sure there is a joke in there comparing what I used to ride versus what I ride now, but I would never go down that road and make that joke... ;):P haha

I have a friend who worries each time I fall, what happens to my tattoo. I must admit I do check that for damage after the bike :D

Now it sounds like there's a good story behind that. Cmon - what's a few sordid stories between hubbers. What happens on the hub stays on the hub (and maybe Twitter if it's THAT good). ;)
