Well as you could see from my other topic, my frame has now been rendered useless, thought I'd share the pics with you, poor frame has withstand so many abuse but oh well this practically forces me to buy a new bike so... also I just noticed how weird/cool the paintjob on the frame is when I took this pictures, it shifts from green to blue (and turns into the inbetween colors like turquiose/teal) depending on the light conditions.
