A lot of coping and pasting this month with a full compliment of 20 repainted bikes. Back in the day 20 used to be the limit for entry numbers but we rarely come close these days. Which one of these will get your vote? Here's the before pics of all the entries. Check out the build threads in the entry thread here

Stella month, with 4 I'd line up ready to swing a leg over. However 3 of them fell foul to missing valve caps or inconsistent wheel/valve alignment for the picture, a classic BOTM faux-pas (we've all been there).

So the Yo Eddy get's the nod even though I suspect the owner would quickly remove me before I could pedal it out of the garage

Amazing entries again this month. I’ve never been brave enough to take on a build that needs a full repaint. Maybe this summer I’ll practice my painting skills on an old frame.
