DO IT.

And then post pictures. I'd got for the mint green.

Word. The mint green is a really cool color. I really want to paint my bike... but I'm too lazy to take it all apart.

I've never seen your bike. Since it's together and stuff you should take pictures.

FitRider 921 04-28-07 09:35 PM

It looks like crap right now. It still has some leftover pieces of stickers (from my quick attempt to desticker it), and it has a lot of paint missing. It also has a brake cable that isn't attached to the brakes. I also found out that not having flanges on the brake lever side is not fun.

Premium, do it mint green, it looks sick

Fit, no brakes all the way

WD-40 and a rag removes sticker gunk. Then sand it down a bit and give her a fresh coat of your favorite color!

FitRider 921 04-29-07 07:51 AM

Yeah, I did that a bit, but parts of stickers still remain because my stickers were all shredded and in like 50 million pieces. I don't know what color I would paint my bike.

cwt341 04-29-07 10:26 AM

fit i used some stuff called like goo-gone and something else and i just put it on a rag and scrubbed and they eventually start to disolve and peel away because my stickers were shredded up badly to.

FitRider 921 04-29-07 10:32 AM

Yeah, I know about that stuff. I just have to go out and find it and hope it's not very expensive.

cwt341 04-29-07 10:38 AM

I dont think it very expensive i dont know if you have like a meijer by you or a home depot or lowes any of them will have it and i think its like 5 bucks maybe.

FitRider 921 04-29-07 10:41 AM

Okay, that works. Thanks.

Paint it something that no one else is doing. Yellow, orange, a crazy shade of green, maroon...

Something different.

you were being sarcastic right?

FitRider 921 04-30-07 12:37 PM

Eh. I've been thining about white... but I don't think I'll do that. I need ideas.

eightdip 04-30-07 12:54 PM

White is pretty unpractical

Too much padding which makes the seams rip. The material almost sticks to your ass if you sit down, and besides, they don't look very nice

cwt341 04-30-07 01:45 PM

I think like a orange and black scheme would be sweet.

FuzzyRyder 04-30-07 01:46 PM

They look the same as a junior with a bit more padding, and to prevent the ripping thats why you get the kevlar version. But who cares it's a damn seat, they rip. I've also never experienced one "sticking to my ass", and I barely sit on my seat anyway.
