I'm in love with these stripped chrome bicycles. Does anybody besides Bianchi make affordable chrome frames? The plainer, the better. Thanks.

i picked up an older fuji s10s ltd and started stripping the paint found out that its chrome under the paint..

after seeing these pics i might just leave it chrome and call it a day.

Ooh, this looks nice. Do you have one? How does it compare to the Pista. I think buying a Pista would be a lot cheaper than buying this frame and building it up...

Thanks.

Hi i just bought a pista couple weeks ago and very much enjoying it. Trying to get the decal off with this Jasco adhesive remover but somehow when i apply mine doesn't seem to be crystalizing like the pictures i see around after applying.

Jasco didn’t do anything for me. In fact, I regret using it at all since the stuff is toxic as hell and now I’m not sure how to dispose of it. Try a razor. You may be timid (as I was at first) but the chrome won’t scratch. Try it in an inconspicuous place first if you don’t believe me. It took an afternoon and about five razors (they dull quickly) but I eventually got the decals and the clear coat (or whatever it is) off. There’s still some evidence of clear coat at the joints, but you have to be looking carefully for it to notice.

You go to the previous page and use your eyes, which should be located on your face between your nose and forehead.
