Title: Bike stripping
Post by: Gary72 on October 21, 2015, 09:14 PM

Deceided that it is time for my frame to change colour, It's been copper/ginger for 2 years now since I bought it. Going to raw it and clear coat it.
I wanted a raw version when I bought this one, But there was none available.
I love new school bikes, Had it stripped down to just the frame in about 1/2 an hour. Couldn't believe it was done so quick.
Not like the OS stuff of loose ball headsets and bottom brackets, No having to twat the cups out. No smashed thumbs :tickedoff:
The hard part is going to be removing the paint :buck2:
Will post some pics when it's done.

you do know you'll have to dye your wig the same color as the frame or no one will recognise you  :daumenhoch:   ;D
