Orange Clockwork, now ready to ride!

Apart form the decals :? I'm liking this very much. The silver finish shows off just how chunky the seat tube is. That in conjuction with the 1 1/8" headtube and skinny top and down tubes gives this the quintessential late 90's clockwork look. Very cool!

Now just get Gil to make you some proper decals instead of those cheapo ebay jobbies... just look at the size of that '7' on the P7 sticker! :roll:

love the silver finish, where did you get it done?

West Taunton powder coating, they offer a blast and coat service for £60.

What happened to the metal headtube badge? I kinda liked that!

That new paint is much improved over the old!

The metal head badge is safe and sound in my spares drawer. I could not decide on it but it is safe!

I think clockworks look great in silver or grey - it goes with the Orange really neatly!!

I might even go grey with mine if i cant find someone capable of doing an orange/white fade!!!!

I agree. All we need is a colour match for the '92/'93 silver-grey finish. If I can find it my prestige could well end up that colour.

i might go gloss grey and see what it looks like

this is all providing i can get the bb out!!!

Seriously, get the silver/grey colour match with classic decals. Always my favourite from BITD and very rare.
