I'm building a single speed from a mountain bike frame, and I can get it powder coated yellow for free. Haven't seen a lot of yellow bikes posted in the other threads.

Please share your pics.

Yeah, it is a Cinelli Olympic, great frames and they are fully chromed underneath. Dunno why the SuperCorse gets all the love...

what does it look like now?

Here's a pic of the frame now and the color it will be - "gas pipe yellow".

I know someone that can throw it into the pile when the gas pipes get coated; all for the price of a 12-pack.

Those are some nice bikes!

I picked up a gold stem for $2 at the LBS; they have some pretty good deals on parts. Probably going to use my tan leather saddle and maybe a yellow chain.

had this:

stolen about 6 weeks ago. mostly just miss the brooks :( getting used to the san marco rolls I got instead since you can get a decent rolls for 15 bucks, but you can't get a usable leather saddle for under 40 :/

I love this idea. Do they paint, powdercoat or gel coat them?

If you're talking about the gas pipes and my bike frame, it's powdercoat.

By bike, it's a grid. By car, it's a congested mess where you have to dance around forced-turns. There are still a fair amount of one-ways to respect on a bike, but you can almost always go one block further and catch the one-way in the opposite direction. I guess it WOULD be a problem if I did more East/West commuting, rather than North/South.

Here is a pic of my yellow road bike. It is a 2006 Fuji Roubaix. Mine is almost exactly like that but with white grip tape and a CF seatpost.

Gman, that frame turned out well. I like the shade you ended up with. I have a yellow bike as well. I like that yellow's a pretty easy color to see for car drivers... now if we could find a way to MAKE THEM look up....
