To be honest, I'm just happy that Adam was adventurous and didn't want a mid blue like every other monkey. Takes some serious kahunas to choose a matte brown for a 2600 buck custom frame, and he pulled it off as far as I'm concerned.

Anyway, next frame is orange with gold sparkles in the front, raw Titanium in the back, so it all evens out in the end

BTW, that a cromo frame? If so, isn't steel painted the colour of rust a bit cynical? Or prophetical? Tell you the truth, I do like it myself. I always thought if ever I got a custom done I'd get it in a copper colour, so that's not to far off.

Can;t wait to see your new jobbie.
