I would think you could offer special edition custom work to the big manufacturers for their show bikes. Unbelievable work!
This is a great idea! Will definitely look into this.

Thanks!

The bar tape is the Specialized S-Wrap HD . Spent a lot of time looking at various designs but I thought this one suited it best.

Very unique. You must get so many comments every time you pedal.

You would think so but I can count on one hand the comments I have received. I think a top of the range carbon bike gets more comments here than my bike.

I have a friend who is constantly asking me when I'm going to buy a carbon bike? (He's not even joking).

I've always had a real love for late 90's early 00's road bikes. My dream bike was/is the Pinarello Galileo from 2003. I've had this bike for over 10 years, I love it.

But on a high speed descent on a closed corner I crashed quite badly at over 65 kph and totaled the bike.

Me and the frame survived. So to turn a negative into a positive I decided to draw on it.

This is the result. I hope you enjoy looking at it

Enjoy!

Thanks for the bump Yuri. Funny how you bumped this today because I have literally just finished my 2nd frame! Was going to contact the guy who does my top coat when I saw your bump.. Crazy coincidence. Posting some (rough) pictures for you all to see.

There's plenty more pics and videos on my Instagram https://www.instagram.com/firewaterboy_art/

Once the top coat is done I will get a photographer to take nice pics of it and will post it here again.
Thanks to everyone for all the love and support. You have all been great

Everything on the Pinarello (wheels, brakes, cranks, etc.) was destroyed but the frame survived. Was actually looking to get a new bike when a friend had a closer look at the frame and said it was fine. The derailleur hanger was a bit bent but he straightened it. The same friend also gave me the idea to draw on the frame.

The frame I posted today is a commission from D'Menor Bikes, a custom frame builder from London.

Finished today
