So anything true to the metal itself would be wonderful, particularly clearcoat, although I understand not everyone shares the rough-hewn aesthetic. Plating maybe. I do love the flat black and flat in general to contrast with the shiny components. Also, with due respect to your brand, I would hope to be able to lift the decals, with the understanding that I would praise Velo Orange at every opportunity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-3836210670902089172010-08-30T11:37:19.662-04:002010-08-30T11:37:19.662-04:00Keep a few frames the matte black for the people w...Keep a few frames the matte black for the people who like dark frames, but introduce a new, bright color for the next round of Polyvalents: make them different!dweendaddynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-67937039434271977572010-08-30T11:18:30.909-04:002010-08-30T11:18:30.909-04:00Another for YellowAnother for YellowTSVDPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08799437719101782398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-24580786019979623382010-08-30T09:15:26.399-04:002010-08-30T09:15:26.399-04:00matte blackmatte blackChris H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13183172987814451919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24415034.post-21603634672801380842010-08-30T08:42:40.029-04:002010-08-30T08:42:40.029-04:00Orange! or green....
