'08 Capos - downtube sticker under clearcoat WTF
Am I the only one who got a frame with a gigantic 2"x1" warning sticker on their downtube? WHAT THE ****?
That really pisses me off. The bike looks super clean otherwise then you have an encyclopedia on the ****ing downtube. ****! Anyone have any creative way of removing it WITHOUT ****ing up the clearcoat or one that does not require a repaint?
Argh. **** you cannondale!

At least its a very interesting read eh?
I would have to disappoint you about being able to remove it without ****ing up the clearcoat - just slap a sticker on top.. Depending on the sticker it will increase its ratings on the pistadex..
