Bikes: Still have a few left!

Only had a couple with shellac on cotton: Super Course with 2 coats clear on black.+ my 2019 Cino PX10 with multiple coats on white. Liked them both, prefer the smoothness from many coats, but as you can see, clear shellac on white tape yields off-white. Can also recommend shellac on cork tape. It looks good, extends the life greatly and amber can give a pleasing color change. Cinelli yellow cork with amber goes will with Brooks Honey or Brown leather.. The Zeus has yellow + multiple coats of clear shellac, is still in place, looking good today, although additional coats were added a few times. I once got a buy on some hot pink cork tape that was too hideous to use. . Some amber shellac gave a pleasing red The group shot shows yellow cork + amber shellac and hot pink + amber on the AD. Expedition has hot pink + amber.. Don
