Hi all, anybody gone for a powdercoated SC with different colour frame and swing arm? or ended up that way after a warranty? some of the combos look really nice.

Mmm checkout the pro polish job I did on the main frame

I think the original bike I tried was black and silver but I went with all black, showed up the scuffs and scratches too much after a while tho. I quite like it's scruffy appearance now, suits its owner ๐Ÿ™‚

DoNK - nice pic, looks like some weird lighting going on there, looks like a studio pic in parts! i think if i got one it would be copiously lathered in frame tape as ive seen a fair few matt SC top tubes etc...

xcstu is that the old trans blue?

not too many double coloured SC around then?

I loved the Gang green from a few years back, would look good with a black rear triangle(?)

i think it reminds me of bikes way back when. was it a proflex which had a red rear? many years ago anyway.
