I posted about this build elsewhere but wanted to show it off here as well.
Got this frame and fork from the Bike Exchange that had some significalt corrosion under the paint on the aluminum frame.
Rather than throw it in the dumpster as suggested I took it home, cleaned the rusted areas, and treated it to this custom paint job.
It looks like a fancy easter egg and I love it. Hope you all do too.
As with all my creations , it will be sold(probably for much less than it's worth) by the Silicon Valley Bicycle Exchange (bikex.org) to help keep the lights on at our non proffit.
