I wonder how much would it cost to copper plate a seatpost, stem, bars, and cranks... Maybe hubs rims and spokes too, but probably not. I'm thinking the same finish they have on brooks saddle rails. It would develop a really nice patina over time, and would match smashingly with my cyclops with red to copper fade paintjob.
Can you copper plate alloy easily? I don't ride my cyclops enough to justify NOT doing this.
picture kind of showing fade on the cyclops
