Awesome. That's just what I wanted to hear, I feel a little intimidated when I look at sites like Velospace and Fixed Gear Gallery, but it's definitely a fun bike. I think over time I'll powdercoat it black or maybe dark green so it's not quite as flashy.

That brings me to my second question. I read in the thread about removing pista decals something about semi-transparent powder coats. That sounded interesting, and was wondering if anyone had pictures of this paint job.

Thanks for all the help to this point, seems like a great forum.

edit: I meant to say translucent not semi-transparent powder coat. Still looking for pictures of a bike with this though.
