Never heard of one of those, but it would look pretty sick "sitting on a park bench"

 
This will give you a better idea I did a quick mock up today . I had a set of peek bars and I put them on to see how they look .
I have to say I like the way they flow with the rest of the bike .
For the wheels I will change them most likely but still keep it three speed . I wanted an Alfine 8 but I this this will be just fine .
As for colors I have not decided yet im thinking Silver but it's early yet [emoji4]

Stickers? They gotta go. I'm wondering what a clear red would look like over the pink... cool frame though.
Sitting on a park bench...:rofl:

You are right about the curves of the Peek bars flowing well with the frame!
I like the funky fork offset at the top of the headtube.
Do you have that canti seatpost that is in the pic that Barry posted?
 
you guys really like that Pink?
I could only ride a pink bike if it were overly cool. And it couldn't be a daily thing for me. Just not my color. Pink Being rare is still pink. ( had this conversation with a friend about a pink hemi GTX in a box years ago...)

Personally, if I were for me, I would layer a clear, then overlay it with the color of my choosing...

My 0.02, do the color the frame tells you to paint it...

Translucent red over pink as a base coat is not pink anymore. I'm thinking it'd be an electric red, shoot some thick clear over that for some depth.

Cool names as well. Panther Pink, and Moulin Rouge.. I like to see them as a rarity. A few in the local club, no b bodies that color but 3 or so ebodies and an a body. Given my choice...

Anyhow, The more I look at the stickerless frame, the more I like it. You can do some pretty cool things with it. ;-)

So they are only making 50 of these at 1000 a pop for the frames.With shipping worldwide.
Curious what number is yours? ..../50
Interesting frame not sure if I like it,hate it or love it. Certainly a head turner.
Here is one with a tank.
