[MENTION=184012]Doug Fattic[/MENTION] - I appreciate your comment. Interesting approach too. That frame looks great. Noticed it in the other thread where you presented it.
Typically, I don't like the idea of a fresh paint on the frame when the parts are used and have the Patina of the original condition of the frame just prior to repaint. The parts on the Pinarello are used but don't have significant wear and tear the paint presents.
[MENTION=200311]mechanicmatt[/MENTION] - Given This frame is chrome underneath, Chromovelato would be really cool. Don't know how that is done with any acceptable quality. Any ideas?
