Seen alu and (obviously) Ti before, but anyone risked a raw steel frame?

slainte ❓ rob

They look ace in steel, I’m gona mine when the paint is shot…..not expecting it to be anytime soon mind.

I have a Curtis thats raw steel with clear lacquer.
I don’t have any detailed pic’s on mine but this is from the website.

My Stolen Sinner in Raw steel, you can see the weld burns under the lacquer, lovely.

…and I must have caught the bug as I later rawed my Giant Reign by having it dipped. Its blummin gorgeous built up…

wasnt there a batch of raw summer seasons?

edit: anyway, my lynskey/O-O raw ti.

Also got a Five in a similar finish and had an Intense Slopestyle in raw, which was lovely until someone took some polish to it…

Los- I took my Giant to a powder coaters/industrial strippers in Leicester. They dipped it for 25 quid which I thought was reasonable.
To be honest, just Google ‘chemical stripping’ in your area and you should come up with something. I gave it a little rub over with fine wire wool and it looked great. Re-doing the wire wool every once in a while if you can be bothered brings back the shine. EBay for the decals….

thanks kayak, might buy that ferrous 29er with nackered paint job after all!

If they dip it, they’ll not charge too much more to powdercoat it I’d have thought.
