The frame is primed, sealed and has the championship yellow on. As soon as it cures sufficiently, I will mask off the stripes and logo outline and apply the white. If time allows, I will shoot the blue today.

Here is a cut away shot of the Alchemy 5 bearing hub that I took at Interbike. The inner free hub bearing is obstructed from view

by the large bearing. Can't wait to see how they perform this cross

season.
