Hey Hey Hey, No Decay

I had a request to post more photos of the paint on the U. Scanini.

To be honest, I really dislike the paint on this frame, it’s too dimensional and I think you lose the beauty of the crimped tubing.  However, the paint is in remarkably good condition and quite durable, unlike my NOS Quintana Roo.  I actually want to have it repainted Mercedes W123 beige and build it up with a full carbon group, but that’s a fantasy more than anything.

The lugs, brake bridge and dropouts are all Silva.  The dropouts are beefier than most track ends and I really love the profile on the SLX seat stays.  It’s a really cool frame and I can’t wait to build it up.
