Finally... repainted my schwinn frame

ok-

so i have two identical schwinn travelers- one I got for $200, the other $20-

the 200 dollar one is in very good condition, great paint and what not.

the other... scratched up, last owner started to sand part of the frame, two of the cable stays were smashed-

so i figured, ill keep the nice one- and i did a fg conversion-

and this one, i chose flat black and watermellon spraypaint-

i shaved off all the cable stays, kickstand stays, anything else i shaved as well.

came out well, cant decide if I should do some decals for it or not?

pics:










and here is my good condition one, before the fixed gear conversion-(old pic)

I can't help but associate that color scheme with this:

Either. But if decal, something like "INITIALS Special."

Or if girl, Tutti Fluity.
