Yeah, leave the paint scars. It's Italian, perfect paint is not to be expected!
Chrome looks great and I love the DT shifter position.
Glad to see you back DD, it's been awhile! I'll be watching this one...

Thanks, man. I've been away getting the transition done along with a lot of traveling, visiting and riding. Almost ready to settle down for the winter. Decal seems to point to SL - the only helical stuff is in the fork steerer tube. It's a pretty light frame and the end result is very svelte. I love the gear lever setup, too, and during this build I improved upon the shifting - when I built it up for short time years and years ago, the rear shifting was balky. Not now!
Looking for some
blue cat paw stickers (maybe at the Dollar Store) to cover up the number of sanded/prepped paint chips
Good to be back, and with a bike to share with y'all
