[Robertriley]

It's been raining off and on all weekend but I was able to get a good jump on it.

There was a bunch of dings up and down the seat tube. I used almost 4 cans of filler primer to smooth them out and left a few there for character.

Very very nice especially considering the cooler weather...

Slapped it all back together. There's a little drag when cranking but that will have to wait a while before I dive into that. The other chainless I have cranks as smooth as silk, I'm going to sell that onebut if there are no bites....it may become a weekend project.

Nice! How do you like Rustoleum Acrylic Enamel in comparison to traditional Rustoleum? Did you use a gloss black? Looks perfect... not too thick and shiny.

Well, they don't need to be white to have a resemblance..
