Title: Paint or not ?
Post by: Gashead on September 04, 2011, 05:08 PM

I was, maybe, not sure, in two minds to sell my HLT !


Got it out the loft and can't decide !


If I don't - do I paint or leave ?  :-\

It all depends on the finish condition of the rest of the bike Nick, if the rest is nice then cranks to match.

so you finally found some, if they are going on that leary then i would paint them in the correct colour, but the chrome has to be mint for the paint to look right...

Agreed Sam


That's why I think I should leave as is !


I got the cranks a month after the frame and all the other bits ! Just never got around to build it !

keep it!  love these and that one looks a peach!  unless it's for a damn good price!   wouldn't want someone getting it for a song and then putting it out on ebay or somewhere else for a huge profit  ;)
