Well used Storm Adroit with missing paint

[Rahbari]

Price is okay.

Single Stratas go for 1500 EUR

MC1s go for 150-250 EUR

Adroit Frames in bad condition go for 500-700 EUR

And you get the bonus of a real "Storm" on a MC1-frame. Unlike the majority in this forum, not everybody is keen on the full-repaints.

But indeed, some boron/carbon is missing, looking at his pic:

I see the sellers asking for more than before....not so sure they are ACTUALLY selling for what is being asked

Well this thread has been a learning curve.....

Still not sure that I get it, but "Que sera sera" I guess... (I own an Orange X1 !)


without wishing to sound any more of a knob than I already am, should there be overspray on the Stem ?

How difficult would it be, with todays Internet availability of materials and advice, to apply new boron / carbon to the missing areas before repainting?

Re:

Why the hassle? The boron/carbon fibre epoxy was applied to reduce vibrancy. The claim to also add stability does not convince me and was probably only marketing. I guess, an Adroit with boron/carbon is just like an Attitude.

I would have thought application of the boron is a far easier job than the actual repaint, so why not?
If it were my frame I'd certainly be investigating the possibility.
