Right, here it is. It'll look like this for about a week, as I have about as much faith in the quality of the finish as I do in an omnipotent benevolent god.
NB THE BOTTLE CAGES ARE GOING, to be replaced with some white & pink ones.
Opinions? I know its a bit of a heap, but it'll do until the mrs buys me a new one as a wedding present (er, 0.01% of this actually happening).
NB the garage isn't mine, so don't BOTHER telling me what I need to do here. |

Needed massive bold graphics - too late now though
Bar tape is suitably ghey already so I'd stick with that. _________________ Rap's Rambo! One Man Army had it with your mumbo jumbo

Sweet. Leave the cages they're fine. What is needed is a shot of rider and bike together so we can see how well they co-ordinate together. Please tell me you have suitably ghey shoes and socks? _________________ "Veloriders - Sounds like a bunch of soccer holigans still watching reruns of Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter" |

Hmmmm, it looks good but it'll look better with white. Only one mans opinion matters though...

He has a tendency to be insincere if embarrassment would ensue to someone else. |

Saddle and bar tape should match. Pink saddle ?  _________________ Enjoy every sandwich. |

Good to see the bike is in 53-11, where I imagine it spends most of its time  |

I agree, otherwise it looks unbalanced. White tape then. |

but didn't he put the stickers on over the lacquered finish? So you could get new stickers made up and take the old ones off? _________________ "Veloriders - Sounds like a bunch of soccer holigans still watching reruns of Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter" |
