Dunelt returns

47 comfortable miles this morning , on this great riding bike .

Apart from rear mechanism cable slipping and dumping me in 6th on a hill no issues.

A local road name near by came in useful this morning.

Nice. Are you going to highlight the lugwork to make it a feature.

You'll be dammed if you do and dammed if you don't

Yes do it! It'll give those cute nervex a bit more definition where the thickness of powdercoat has softened their profile a bit

But what colour ?

White would be my first choice but not sure it would go

Looking at the bike, IMO black would be striking, but silver would also match the mudguards, bars etc.

I think some other members on the forum have used a type of pen. I assumed that it was like a fibre tip pen but it could be what you have selected.

I wish they had put a picture of what they used.

You could try blue as in the playground. It could look quite vivid if you chose the right shade.

I'm not sure if they were for lining cars or motorbikes. I wouldn't mind some myself.
