wow I really like that color. I bet it looks even cooler in person. Looks great w/ yellow accents.
Are those hoods comfortable in that position? Seem like they are pretty high up
Edit: Also, what kinda frame is dat?
Edit (AGAIN): I recall you having a framebuilding setup in your basement? Is this the finished product??? If so..it looks AMAZING

There's rainbow flake in the top coat; the powder coater told me it would look great in the sun, but there hasn't been any direct sun since I picked up the frame.

Very nice. The picture posted here does not do it justice. Nice to see it all the way from design to finished product. Nice.
