PVT_RYAN Posted August 25, 2015 Share So a couple of months ago a friend of my wife dropps off bikes for our kids. Perfect timing as i just got my Mtb. Needless to say my son was not happy with the colour of his bike. So i promised him if he wants it a different colour, he needs to help me strip down the bike and HE needs to sand it down. Needless to say every weekend he went to the garage, got sandpaper and sanded a piece of the bike. (i know i could use paint stripper, but this was learning and bonding experience)This went on like this for 6 weeks and some evenings and then the long weekend came and he jumped at the chance of me spraying his precious. i got specific instructions and references nogal. "Daddy it must be Batman Black and you must design a batman and logo to, okay!!" and bring his hot wheels batman car for me to check the colour.Matt Black, with gloss accents of the Batlogo. And now the last decal is on and the BatBike lives. Its not a vintage, nor a dualie, but man he loves it and it has got me in the mood for more builds, so much so that i have 3 frames in the garage, ready to be stripped down and rebuilt. One for the daughter, one for the wife and one for the daddy who just loves bikes! so any "throw away donations" are gladly welcome!
