Custom paint?

Surfin' the inner webs for subjects I'm into, namely bicycling, I come upon eye candy that just piques my interest. I'm expecting a new-to-me Klein frame that I'm planning on building up as a single speed. It's a lower end Pulse that has http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifexternal cable routing, not the signature internal cable routing that Klein is famous for.

Anywho, I was doing some research on Klein bikes and came upon a guy in the UK that refurbs and repaints Klein bikes. He specializes in recreating the unique eye-candy paint schemes of Klein in the 80s-90s. Currently, there's a lovely "night storm" Attitude on his webpage that looks absolutely delicious. My mind starts to wander... maybe I can send my lower end Klein and make it something special.

I've spent too much on bikes this year. I gotta stop looking at bikes online. It creates a dent in my wallet every time I do.

*edit* forgot... here's the website, www.kleinspainted.com
