Meet the new boss, same as the old boss
The Gunnar Rockhound is back from the paint shop and is rebuilt and ready to roll. Les at Powder Coat Specialists (314-427-4991) did the work in less than a week and did at fantastic job. He bead blasted the old finish, prepped the frame, and applied the new finish. The color is Smoke Black and matches the color/finish of the Rock Shox Reba fork perfectly. The Gunnar decals were custom made through www.edecals.com. Powder coats are supposed to be more durable than traditional paint jobs (even with clear coats). My only problem is that with my string of crashes, a black frame will be harder to spot lying in the underbrush!

Boz,
It's gorgeous. New wheels too? Those look like green Ck hubs but it's hard to tell.
The only thing your bike needs is a www.TwoWheelBlogs.com decal. I can hook you up no problem. They're a nice bright yellow - the perfect color to set off those hubs. Plus you'd be much more visible to search and rescue parties.
Seriously, nice work. Nice looking ride.
holy crap. i hope that zip tie in the third pic isnt measuring sag. Holy krispy creme batman!
the paint job? meh... lipstick on a 29" pig.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.
HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA.

You want to look away, but you can't! You can't stop looking! You're in love. You want one, but you can't admit it! Admit it! You're in love with 29ers... come out of the closet!
