+1 on that.

I took a vintage Klein there to get the paint stripped. They did a perfect job. Apparently, Turner and Foes get their frames powdercoated by Olympic, as well.

It's around $100 - $150 give or take bit to get a frame stripped and coated one color at Olympic.

Well I was thinking orange OR green, but now that you mention it I could do both with Black or white as a base.

a bighit would look sick with the frame and sub frame green with a white rocker arm shock mount thing and a white seat white stem green bars white grips and green levers for your brakes...just an opinion

Someone mentioned a bright bike?

I had this done at Olympic a couple of years ago:
