My bike is my 2nd most prized possesion and after a good 6 years of abuse the frame is looking tatty and tired.....time for a respray!

ive stripped my bike down today, just need to remove the headset and its ready to be prepped for paint

I went to local specailzed dealership who are getting hold of some 2008 P3 decals for me so should look a bit different

Pics of stripping

247 crankset and profile ring


wheels off


bars/forsks/brakes, couldnt be bothered to completely pull them apart


and the frame ready to be stripped and painted. Im going to spray it a bright metalic white with black decals



thought i would post it up in projects as its something a bit different
