Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Exactly what I was thinking! Mystic Cobra.

Chameleon paint was all the rage for custom/modded/show cars in the mid-to-late 90's.

Looks great on that frame--better than it would on a car, IMHO.

I like! Can you zoom on the down tube decal? Interested in a closer look.

No. Black saddle, black tape.

Be careful, Spec might sue you for making that frame look a thousand times better than before. Awesome color choice, and amazing detail work on the logos.
