Will you tell me which frame it is on the phone? 

I promise not to ruin the thread...

[Rushdee]

Not an ss then.

Sadly not. With my legs, if it was an ss, the bike would just not fulfill it's intended purpose as an "All-Mountain" machine..

To to clean up and varnish those floors

Just be glad my priorities are in order:

1) bikes

2) bike apparel

3) bike maintenance

4) food on the table

5) home maintenance. maybe.. 

[Rushdee]

picked up these for cheap and decided to continue the anodized blue detail, much to some folk's dismay..

my gut tells me that I've over-cooked the blue detail somewhat (would've preferred a bit more subtleness). However, some of these parts came my way by chance and I went with it..
