Great idea, but i need to find a color similar to the existing one.

I have a Miyata tourer that was butt ugly, lavender and pink, I stripped it, took it to a local shop I know that paints frames for $150. Had them do it in a nice green. I like it much better.

I like the color.. a great looking bike!

Yes there are.. my friends told me I need to check with what we call "Chapista" or Car bodyworker( they paint car frames... )
