I’m building my tourer from scratch and wanted a nice muted plum tone but it looks like the joker’s suit 😬😬😬 This is the finished result btw
Any ideas on how to work with this colour or gear that goes with it? I don’t know if it’s bad enough to strip and start over

I like the color, but I just like purple as you can see from [this linked post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Vintage_bicycles/comments/1v92zl1/neoretro_restoration_of_1981_trek_610/).
What drivetrain are you going to use on this bike? I am a little confused about the lack of derailleur hangers and the track dropouts, but I think silver components would look amazing with that shade of purple!
Doesn’t look to bad, did you put lacquer over the top? Painting bikes yourself never looks good, that’s why you aim for the self painted finish. Janky and punk. Just ride it, it’s a bike not an Instagram post.
Also wrong sub, try bikebuilding or xbiking
MODS! TAKE HIM AWAY!
