Nice work.

Is the frame painted, or is it finished another way?

Cheers
Stuart

Hi Stuart, its powder coated... I used to spray the frames of bikes I built, but its a messy job as it creates so much over-spray... I then put a few out to powder coat, and was very disappointed in the finish and their attention to detail... then I found a guy who does an absolutely brilliant job! its a company called Redditch shot blasting and the guy who runs it is a bike enthusiast, and is meticulous! highly recommended! its a 60 mile round trip for me, but worth it for the job you get back...

I do all my own paintwork on tanks and seats though, and also hydrographic carbon finish which comes out really well and is very durable... here are a few pictures from previous builds...
