Colourway not my bag but you've got a great example there

Sorry for the delay. The first two paintjobs for the Mission Control unit were not satisfactory. Now back with the painter for the third time. The Problem is, that the frame is unevenly faded and apparently it is hard to imitate faded colours.

The MC1 is with me again and the painter has done a magnificant job!

At the moment, the frame is getting fittet a ti axle for my Grafton Joystix cranks.

Hopefully, I will have pics of the finished bike this weekend. I have decided to swith from a silver to a black build.

Last part missing is a black holey Ringle skewer for the seatpost.
