Local good guy and super smart guy Jeff Tessier built his ti MTB frame for the local Colorado Springs Bike Show last weekend. Jeff usually stays with some pretty tried and true colors and layouts, but for this one he said he wanted to step out of the ordinary, that we could do what we wanted to. Be careful what you ask for. I don't think we let him down though.

We started with a celeste-ish color base, and Mark had a cool idea to try decending dots as the transition to raw ti.

Since we did dots for the main color break, why not use them for the panel edges too?

And a matching little seat tube panel as well.

We wanted to add a little bit of color, but had to be careful not to turn it into a southwest theme.

We kind of went all in on this one and used a matte clear too. The muted turquoise color definitely lends itself to the matte clear.
