YepDid you use a sanding block? That would help.

Sand the frame down to bare aluminum and clear so it doesn't look like a Walmart bike.Almost done. Stuck a tube in there so the tape can settle and stick properly b4 going tubeless. Also need to sand down some runs on the fork and then polish.

Blasphemy! Talon has Hope!Sand the frame down to bare aluminum and clear so it doesn't look like a Walmart bike.

You don't even need to sand it down, just paint strip it, light sand it to give it texture, and then clear coat that thing! Or wait after the end of the world and have it powder coated clear, even betterer!Sand the frame down to bare aluminum and clear so it doesn't look like a Walmart bike.
Don't make me do more stupid. Not say your idea is stupid... But my execution.red pinstripe on the fork would really bring the room together
Eh? They are both redHonestly, the thing that bothers me the most is the upper headset being a different color than the lower one...
I believed the lower was black. I stay corrected. Beautiful!Eh? They are both red
Eh... I want the fork to match the seatpost in color. It kinda does now as it is.Here’s an idea...how about roughing the clear up and paint it flat black? It goes on everything ! Maybe too late. The red stripe doesn’t really spit for me, personally.
Since my crash at HM a month or so ago... havent ridden the bike on the trails. TBH.. i doubt it will ever see trail duty other than gravel... or possibly 6mr or Allaire. It is pretty fun on gravel and more comfy on the road.I don’t know.... the bike looks fine as it is. The real question is.... how do you like it’s current form (ride wise). It seems You, me and Leo are all rocking a fully rigid gears MTB. Coincidence?
WTH is this red shit. It looked almost ok before. Strip the frame to raw aluminum to fix this.
Put it on there with painter's tape just to see how it would look.WTH is this red shit. It looked almost ok before. Strip the frame to raw aluminum to fix this.
