As some of you know, I got lucky and happened upon a lost XO-1 frame. It's seen some of life and needs some love.

It will need a paint job or powder coating...

I can't decide if I want to bring it back to it's construction pumpkin (or as close as I can).. or if I wanna just paint it something else.

I'm thinking if I paint it something else, then maybe a metallic burnt orange to hint at it's original color or just go way off to a nice deep burgundy or just glossy black. And maybe highlight the lugs and the fork crown with something else .. like chrome or something.

I've been looking at some cool rebuilds bike and man.. some are sweet. So maybe you folks have some suggestions that I haven't thought of....

THanks.

Oh.. thought I'd add a link to what the orig construction pumpkin looks like: http://www.flickr.com/photos/89119745@N00/308191494/
