That looks incredibly difficult to vinyl wrap. Do you have any unedited, close up photos?

Thanks, makes sense now. The vinyl matches up nicely with the carbon underneath.

chrispaulcx (Mar 9, 2015 at 15:27)

It really does match well. Would be way harder to do an aluminum red bike for example!

Wow. Looks great! How did you strip the frame?

chrispaulcx (Mar 8, 2015 at 12:00)

Black vinyl wrap over the paint.

Did you do this yourself?

vinyl car wrap from ebay. cheap and very compliant once heated with Chris' hair dryer

Judging by Chris' hair these days, it must be an industrial strength dryer.

I bet whoever he got those cranks from is hung like a buck gerbil! And pulls the bitches!

The postman?

chrispaulcx (Mar 8, 2015 at 17:54)

He was a generous fellow... It must have been the postman! He's the only one with a key to my mailbox where I found em!

Good thing you not married or you'd have another surprise!

chrispaulcx (Mar 9, 2015 at 3:23)

Last thing I'd need is another kid if I was married!
