I was thinking of Jet Kote, but I hadn't realized they messed some frames up. Having painted frames myself, I can attest to how difficult it is to get even coating without runs or missing spots. Maybe I'll just pick up a litre of PPG Concept and have a go myself in the fall. I think I have primer up here still. As long as you're using a solid colour without metal flake, Concept can be colour sanded and buffed to get rid of mistakes.
That was a funny thread regarding brakes. I think that any extended brakeless riding in the city for me would end with my wife achieving a Zen state with my life insurance settlements.
