Re:

Thanks for the comments, THM is this better than nude with the brazing on show ?

cracking paint scheme - who painted it, love the details

Local painter to me Flakeys Custom Paint, top bloke and very helpful, he specialises in custom motorbike paintwork but has painted pretty much everything else!
I was going for just the orange swirl effect but then saw a Union Jack guitar hanging up in his entrance, went home and got the boys pencil crayons out, Dave suggested putting a wave into the flag so it flowed in with the swirls, it's just a shame it doesn't look as bright in the pictures !

Yep better than nude. Top job.

Re:

Very nice mate ,hopefully pop around on a ride this week to have a proper look. Seems he's done a spot on copy of your drawings.
Think it means I'll have to get mine done now.

Dropping the hubs and rims off tomorrow morning, still short a few parts but I'm getting there! I know it been a long time it's kept me busy through the winter

Next build should be quicker ! Hopefully :facepalm:

As soon as I have all the bits I can start, I've roped Charlieboy in to give me a hand ! No pun intended

Disaster!

Had my LBS fit my crown race and headset and they scratched my paint ! :facepalm:
It was an accident and they are very good to me, but I must admit I feared the worst when I listened to their answer phone message ....

Re:

Ah mate, I feel for you. That's terrible

How did they manage to do that?

Can you get it touched up?
