Specialized SL2 Raw Frame question?
I've made the decision to build out a 2008 SL2 with Campy Record. Now I get to pick the frame color. I've taken a look at the Raw frame color and wonder how hard it is to keep that frame looking good since it appears to have no clear coat. How do you clean it? Thanks for any input from anyone who has that color.

Surly you can just wipe it off. I'd go with a pearl white color though. Of course, I would also put DA on it.

I was one at the Tour of California. It looked like it would not be any more difficult to keep clean than a painted bike.
