Respraying a frame that doesn't need it.

i like the white, i've had a few white bikes over the years and have always loved them. :)

only thing is i've just come back from 2 bikes shows and white is everywhere this season, it's like the fashion colour for the year, (and i hate fashion!!) examples, mount vision, a few orange's, several felt's, loads of syncros stuff, kinesis frames, fsa bits.

don't get me wrong coz i love white, looks good dirty :D and looks good again when it's clean!

was gonna order my st4 in green but then i chose a white fork for it, so decided on white frame, then i went to the shows, saw white everywhere as the fashion colour (like matt black for the last 2 years!) and now i think . . . go against the grain, pick something else! retro is about being different, individuality even on my new bike, i want it different from someonelses generally.

also i don't mean to be rude to you mr jones, lets face it sunchasers kona is lovely, but how does that saying go, imitation is the greatest form of flattery or something, i like it when someone sees my stuff and says that's cool but if they then got the same thing as mine, it wouldn't be the "only one" like it.

phone argos and try another colour i reckon if you still decide to paint it, they are great for advice, top blokes. maybe same stickers as sunchasers on gun metal, subtle understated cool 8)
 
Spray it.....

Go on, go on, go on, go on, go on.....GO ON!
 
Personally, though I also dig the white, I wouldn't touch it.
The lucious blue is just perfect and looks great with those decals.

Decisions, decisons......
 
Well it all turned out ok in the end :wink: blue one became a single speed for a while at least :wink:
