DJR Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 B.t.w. The "Jared" name you see on that gorgeous black frame is Jared Mahaffey from BMC in Salt River. He did the painting. These are close up pictures of Jareds own Mercer, also painted by him. Look at the minute colour detail on the lugs as well as the ghost chainrings on the Mercer name.
RocknRolla Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 I am not surprised at all. David's work is simply awesome. One day when I am grown up, I want to own a Mercer.

ZakAttak Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 I thought Jared is Bogus here on the forum... 2 Different people with a really awesome talent in their own right.... Both artist....
RocknRolla Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 Got it Thanks. Not wanting to step on any toes, or draw a comparison at all. Like you say, two of them are absolute artists!!
