rathergoodpie Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Ok so I decided i needed a more natural oreinted frame as there is no decent street where i live. so, bigman to the rescue! His (unfortunately cracked) frame was up for grabs so i thought i'd give it a new lease of life (for a while at least)So i guess custom features include drilled out seat tube, headtube, bb shell and top tube end, as well as internal cable malarky. Sprayed up the whole frame again and then primed and masked the front end black and added detail on the masked area. Im real pleased with the outcome. Sorry about the shady images. Im sure you can work out the spec from the pics. Here it be...Sprayed the steerer tube that shows through the frame...Just need to get some custom stickers done now.Let Me know what you rekon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Scarlet Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 That is pretty hot.It's like the front is black and the rear is white.Would be cool if the white transitioned into the black. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing. I don't have a pissing dremmel so it's the file for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
