Man, that bites. I am not sure what to do to fix it other than sand and re clear.
Some of the better painters might have better ideas.

Re: rug rat ride along
ruff day yesterday my rear brake adapter did not work way bummer, soooo am going back to a 27 inch rear rim. spent most of the day making the changes but am sure its going to look way cool.
even with the changes and repairing the paint this is how I feel about getting it almost done tomorrow maybe ( and you thought wolfs ate sheep(LOL))

Re: rug rat ride along
the only non factory parts so far are the fenders, bars, shifters, brake levers and trusses/fork. have tried to reuse everything that I could from the original bike. Also have a womens designed Schwinn seat for it. The trail a bike will have a stock seat but different bars and tire.
