That is really looking great, what did you use to cover the handlebars and seat?

 

[Fastfix]

Nice bike. How about a detail shot of that chainguard stripe?

OK I did do the pinstriping, but I want to clarrify that I didn't do it with a brush. I cheated a bit, I made them from vinyl using my cutter. I wish I was talented enough to do it with a brush.

I also made bar ends from bottle caps but I didn't want a beer brand so I painted them and made eyeballs for em. I also made grips from hemp rope.
