You can recreate the multicolor Canondale paint. By spraying a thin spray of color paint over a thick solid base color. Then you wet sandpaper the thin colored paint to create a fade. Repeat and layer with different paint colors. Then wet sand to create that multi color fade effect.

@PoulHansenDK Год назад

Shrader valves was quite surprising but what Ollie didn't mention is the fact that they are much faster to fill and empty because of larger inner diameter and much easier to fill with sealant. They even resist blocking by sealant better because of a larger valve seat. The hiding inside the rim was a nice feature too. Next we'll see side cutouts à la disc wheels on all high profile rims.

You mean worst bike? They are charging 4100€ for frame alone, which is ridiculous considering it's outdated. I mean, it is supposed to be a lightweight climbing bike, but frame itself isn't that much lighter than something like Elves Vanyar, which costs 1/4th of Aurum. The Aurum bike is a literal waste of carbon. Also, flat top handlebars are arguably more comfortable than round bars.

I am committed now, too. My biggest issue is the never-ending wax “snow” (wax coming off the chain) that keeps cluttering up my frame and parts. Hard to clean. I use a car detail brush and vacuum but it just keeps snowing. So you either have to deal with constant chain snow or black lube marks. Wish there were a cleaner solution.
