Hey LGF,
Looks to be a cool build. The CT stem looks made for that bike
The powdercoaters down the road from me do a mean matt black finish that would look ace on that build.
Cheap too if it goes in with a larger batch - just means having to wait up to a week...so no great hardship!
JTfinishers are the chaps.
Can supply hobnobs and tea if you venture this way

They be the ones. Should I put the kettle on?*
I have always dealt with John.
I have had coated:
1 x MTB Frame
1 x BMX frame, forks & handlebar
1 x Aluminum forks
1 x soon to be Controltech stem.
*Bugger just found out Mrs LMTTM has burnt through the cord whilst boiling water on the cooker :roll: Its okay though I'll heat the water in a pan

I like it as is.
Besides, you shouldn't spend too much dough on the thing, as like all AL-1s, there's a 97.4% chance the head tube will crack.
spoil sport - can report its crack free though...
A buddy of mine in college had one with drop bars, neon green and pink cable housings, and white Onza Porcs.
He was cool.

Yes those Mavic headsets really are ace, I also like the bolt that prevents it from loosening over time.
The black squares on the frame are a bit dodgy, I bet the bike would have looked a lot nicer without them. It's coming along nicely though, hope you can find some cash to get it powdercoated.
