Even for a confirmed roadie, that has created a Friday morning.....stirring! A thing of beauty!!

 

Can steel be finished with just a clear coat? Maybe not enough corrosion resistance perhaps, but would be nice IMO, to just stare at that, particularly the brazing.....

Can be done ... this old frame of mine was a good few years old when the pics were taken

What about road bikes? A quick snap of my Soma Smoothie... again, pictures do not do it justice. The paint is actually a pearl metallic. Love it.

Cool. Love the paint job on my On-One, also a sort of white/pearl.

Will probably also somewhere along the line look at doing a custom paintjob on it too

There is a guy in Cape Town that apparently does a good job.

 

I'll see if I can remember his name
