opinion on Mark's frame color

[Uncle Stretch]

I think it should be orange.....any other opinions????

 

[thatismytruck]

I like it, but I'm sicking with my first thought of the Schwinn Green or some near facsimile metallic green.

Boy that's a good looking frame.

Orange, i dig it

 

[karfer67]

i dig the orange but i think a schwinn color would be funny just because we all know how you feel about them. what about coppertone? that would be the best of both worlds i am a metal flake freak so thats what i would do. and some pinstripes

 

[Uncle Stretch]

Ok we got 1 green 1 orange 1 coppertone.. Its Marks frame not mine so he will probably change it to something else anyway. I'm just playing with some partial cans of paint. It was white primer...black primer...dark purple ...and orange. I feel like the orange is in line with the race like feel of the frame. :roll:

Gloss black with gold deco lettering/pinstripes -- like an antique sewing machine.

Light silver.......so it looks like aluminum :roll:

You mean like this?

It's funny that you brought this up, 'cause that is exactly the look I was going for on this bike.
My mom had one of the first electric Singers made, it's probably is still running somewhere.

If ya paint the gussits with light silver like aluminum will that make it lighter weight? :mrgreen:

Well everybody know my chioce in building materials...ain't nothing light about my frames no matter what color you paint them. The good thing is if you drop one there may be some scratched paint ,but there won't be any dents in it. :lol:
