I figure they could do the patinas then clearcoat, the gloss coat would pop the colors. the cool part is, the process would result in each frame technically being a one-off coating.

i will order a kilo tt as soon as it comes unbranded...preferably with color options

LOL, you figure out how to do that & it would actually work/last ... you would never, have to work another day in your life .
Talking money, like in Coming to America ( 1988 movie with Eddie Muphy ) /... or just your avg. Dubai oil skeik.

I will also order a Kilo TT RAW as soon as it becomes available.

What about a threaded fork/headset option?

I'll buy a celeste blue frame immediately!

And ship to Canada, you will sell tons in this stupid country.

I'm not entirely sure I follow... you mean patina lasting after clear coating? No, obviously over time the frame will deteriorate, but I can't imagine any faster than your average frame. Clarify?

Any updates on the leather saddles? A raw killo ( real raw, not the grey primer version) with some brooks-ish saddle (swallow) is my 2009 birthday gift to myself.

how does pre-ordering work? I'm subscribed to the bikesdirect newsletter, but I want to make sure that I get one of the strippers before they sell out.

so, when can we expect all the new colors on bikesisland? Will there be a preorder up, i'm ready for a new frame.:thumb:

Not feeling it at all.

If you are on the newsletter, you will get a notice of each special sale
and of new bikes that are going up; so you do not need to keep going to the site to check it out

Stripper is due to ship soon, once it ships we will put up a pre-book

Also just got in a bunch of special limited edition colors in smaller sizes {44, 47, 50}
SWAK PINK, CELESETE BLUE, APPLE PIE, CREAMCICLE ORANGE, and FIFI PINK
those will go up soon and newletter will go out when they do

thanks for signing up

pics!

As soon as examples of SWAK PINK, CELESETE BLUE, APPLE PIE, CREAMCICLE ORANGE, and FIFI PINK
get to the office, we will build and photo and post - should be Tuesday

it is an exciting time at bikesdirect right now. so are you shopping for a new house or car or what?

hahaha dont hate the player!

i respect the game.

Fade suggestions:
Front to back Purple to white
Blue to white



How about unbranded windsors?

The black magic looks awesome!

raw frame with all black components would sell like hotcakes, imo.

is there going to be kilo tt pros with this new color scheme?

Updates? Excited :eek:

Normal colors of Kilo T Pro are on the way in now; Slate, White, Cream, Tangerine

Working on Chrome frames & Chrome/Paint which should be in later this year



NEW COLORS on Kilo TT, Pinks, Celeste, Apple Pie, CreamcucleOrange are in and sell real well
So far the follow up we get is that people love these type colors

Looking to do a lot more color options all the time

It is an exciting time; and I love all the new type of bikes and options
I am especially excited about doing more internal hub bikes and WTF City SS type bikes

The odd thing about your question is it assumes people like myself work for money; which is often not the case. I do this because I love it. In fact, my wife is always saying to me: "you need a hoby" {But she knows I have a hoby, which is working in the bike business}
