Flamboyant in San Fran, ah yes, I see what you did there ...Some of my friends do like the paint more than others...
Thank you very much for the responses-I need to work on the engine a lot before I put any money into the bike, but being the frame that it is (for future reference) would y'all say I should leave everything as it is or is it worth putting anything into it? Also, I read in another thread that Bottecchia chromed the entire frame and then painted over it. I love the chrome bits, could I strip some paint to find polish-able chrome underneath?
Love the look of those wheels in one of the pics, could anybody suggest some not too expensive wheels to make the bike even better? And for that matter, could you tell me if better wheels make you go faster ? I'm working on the engine, but if doesn't help me get to work any faster or in more comfort, than I'm not too interested in spending much money...
Thanks again!
