From: At the foot of Angeles National

Bikes: PedalForce CG1 (the race/century bike), PedalForce RS (the trainer), Eighth Inch SS (the fixie), Flyte SRS-3 (the beater), Caloi Strada Pro (the commuter), Oddball Alu MTB (the tank), Trek 850 (the MTB SS)

This is what happens when you listen to the voices

So I'm stripping old Caloi Strada Pro single speed to morph into a commuter and I started thinking "why are so many parts always black? Why not orange or green or purple?". Hmm. I'm getting the frame ready for the powder coating shop (Olympic in Santa Anita, CA - far way from me but *very* reasonable and a great job too). Hmm. Frack it, do it all.





Still need a set of nice green Vittoria Paves', and a new rack (my old one doesn't fit ). This project really got me thinking about my assumptions and the build possibilities when cheap, quality color is available. Sure wish you could powder coat carbon.
