Getting a new (to me) frame...
Ok, tomorrow my new (to me, its actually a few years old) frame is set
to arrive. Assuming the guerillas at UPS deliver it intact, I'm planning on building it up next week. Now, this is only my 2nd 'really nice' frame. My first, a 1989 Pinarello Treviso, came to me when I was too young (20) and stupid to care for it properly. Who knew that you needed to have the thing clear coated if you wanted people to know it was a Pinarello? This frame is an MX Leader. It is in fine shape. I'm going to have the BB chased, and the head faced, if I can get it done. I'm on the fence about frame saver, though. But is there anything else that I should do before building? Should I have it clear-coated? I do plan on waxing it before building--any suggestions on what works best? I'd like this to be the last road frame that I ever _need_ to buy (notice how I phrased that...) and so I'd like it to last. Any thoughts/suggestions? Matt. PS: '03 Chorus, FWIW. |
