Few more pix. She’s a little ratty and clear is still wet/milky but was such a special moment to capture.

It's hilarious and served as great motivation as a swore not to change the name back until the frame was done.

Well worth the wait, but this 70s soft rock popped in my head. :D :D :D

 
Looks great by the way!!
 
Subtle beauty of black decals on natural carbon.

Looks like that cassette is a 10 spd road model. Your'e likely gonna need flat bar road shifter for compatability and smooth shifting. I'm guessing you might go with a 1 x 10 drive train?
 
Really digging the shade on shade effect of the decals on the carbon.
Very cool!
 
I wasn't sure how the carbon was going to look after the paint was stripped but it's actually pretty cool. Love the stealth graphics too. Looks really good!

Thank you Pondo. It’s more interesting than I thought it would be.

Got it sanded and buffed. Lost 4 of the small stickers on the front but not very noticeable.

Tried the bars on to see how they look. Not bad. Shifters are a little bulky.

Very cool Mr Chad T-rekspert! And those shifters will disappear once you add wheels,saddle, cranks. Natural carbon spacer is sweet, carbon housing on the docket, too?
 
Thank you brother! For casing I have yellow shift and ice gray for the brakes. Didn’t realize the shift housing was Jagwire until now. Bonus. Was a 9 dollar Amazon deal. Didn’t say what brand.

Jagwire ! Sweet. A little splash of color. Got your saddle picked out?
