Very nice bike indeed! This just reminds me how much I wish my Sovereign was here...

Can you put up list of components and more detailed images?
 
Re:

Ooh nice 8) Can you tell me more about the paint and how the finish was achieved?
 
Re:

Thanks,,Built up simple and strong,Mostly XT,cranks,hubs,derrailleurs,thumbies,,REAL Ti. BB,,Curve cantis,,Syncros stem and post,,Flite..Fork is a Brodie Tange from around the correct period,,alas the Gatorblade still eludes me.
The paint is a bit hard to capture in the pics. It's a orange to oranger fade,,the flag is the only decal,the Brodies and Bs are painted,,the "swirls and blobs" were airbrushed on before clear coating.

Man, that's a stunning paint job! Kinda reminds me of the old DB "smoke" paint. "Tangerine Smoke" :)
Thanks for the extra picks! Stunning!!
