In what may be the "2021"est move of BO16, I have made a temporary dust cover
OUTTA THE PLASTIC LID FROM A CONTAINER OF DISINFECTING WIPES!!

Don't forget to "MASK" it off if you decide to paint it.

Step one: heavily applied flat black. Two coats
Step two: matte clear. Three coats. Would have liked to wait a couple of days between steps, but I just don't have the time.
Can I touch it yet?

Ruba dub dub.
Cleaning tires in a tub. Tidying up the details while waiting for the paint to harden. Few little things sorted, few tricks up my sleeve still too. But there's nothing left to do but put it together

I promised I wouldn't. But then I got inspired by OddJob's 27er build...
I swear to gob, this was just to remind me how bad an idea it was... Too late for a theme change?

Just a few dreamy shots.
The clear coat looks so good under here, it might be the best part of the bike.
Just as sparkly as a Showboat, eh Cap'n?

Like a cheetah. That stem is awesome. I'd like to see it at its lowest position. I like the paint rests and the writing on the side. I wanted to do my bike last year like that. It had pink "boomer" writings and it was the same green.
I like that there is a bit paint left around the joints.

That looks like it will be fun to ride.

Sorry, guys. Everyone knows Matti, should know that stem ain't winding up on him's Build Off bike. Him HATES them things!
Misdirection, folks, not going to be a trail bike. Time wasting while waiting for the paint to harden.

Rideable, yes. Rideability, not so much.
Elbows, meet knees. Not taking any 20k rides on this one.
