got blue frame #1.
it's amazing. the blue is much darker than it seems in pictures.
it looked great inside, and even better outside.
no gashes in the paint.
good times.

I have about half the parts for it. I'm gonna get a headset and BB installed and have my wheels built, black machined fusions laced to black Harris Cyclery fixed/fixed hubs. I have some matte black moustache bars too!
HECK YEAH! I see some Matte Black envy going around
