Fetish Cycles decals
I purchased a Fetish Cycle track frame off ebay. I read here on BF that the decals were easily removed. WRONG. My frame looks like the graphics are painted on. Its no big deal. They kind of grow on you. Overall the frame is much nicer that I thought it would be.
Any Fetish Cycles owners out there? How about a pic?

The problem is if you decide to remove stickers later on, you might get blotches of clean shiny paint, makes the rest of your bike look dull. The clear coat probably was sprayed on after the stickers were laid.

Its really no big deal. I even toyed with having this frame painted or stripped but will probably just use it as is.
The paint job does look pretty good. Its just having the work Fetish on a bike sends a message. Not sure its a good one.
