i feel like i've seen that bike around and someone said it was a johnny coast piece. not sure who owns it though. clearcoat over bare metal is a great aesthetic though. i want a yamaguchi like that.

yeah it is. don't tell dw but after i **** up the new paint by locking my bike to poles etc around nyc i may have to strip it just like that. the brazing looks like gold lug detailing. hot ****

Being that clearcoat paint wouldn't work as when it chips / scratches it would rust, they do make clear baked enamel finishes that would be resilient as all hell.

Yes, they are. My bike has a clear powdercoat on a colour one and on bare metal of the lugs.
