I glass beaded the frame this morning and shot the etch prime.  The fame and fork with the uncut steerer weigh just a few grams under 4 lbs. Pretty cool, and I'll bet lighter than my old carbon frame set.  This week end is dedicated to riding, then company for a week, so this is it for a while.  As I have time, I will try to sneak work in on the rain bike.

After a few creative beers with some friends, the livery has been established.  It will be a true Candy Apple Red with Glo Star Metallic Silver accents.  Of course, now I'm wondering how red pipes and silver lugs would look rather than all red.
