Marcus's ride

Previously i mentioned about talking about marcus's bike in the post. Well, his bike i'ld say is one of the best setup bike among the three of them. What to do , I can't resist to pamper my little bro with a smooth ride.
Of course , among the three, this bike would be the hardest and most time consuming bike for me to set up. The theme was black for the bike as I was going through a phase full of hate while thinking of the colors.
OF COURSE NOT, i wanted to give the bike alittle tinge of attitude thus , black. If you pay close attention, you could see that the coat is Matt coated, and jeeze i'm telling you, matt coat is super tough to do. I need 5 cans of spray and each coat like i said has to be applied onto it between1 hour intervals. See how time consuming it is?
Unlike the other two bikes, the technology on this bike is much more up to date then the other two bikes. V brakes, front suspensions , deore rear derailleur ,ceramic cranks.. what else can a 13 year old kid ask for from his bro for Christmas.

Well, in fact , the bike hasn't been completed yet as i've haven't added any designs onto it. So here is actually a concept i came out with from using photo shop. What do you guys think? I might be following up with the concept after i graduate. Woots. More bling!
I would like to Thank zai from veloroutes specially because he is the one who helped me out with alot of parts which i don't know how to install or repair. He also summarized the whole bike build by fine tuning every thing on it. Thus woots, a street like ride is done , totally awesome. P.s , i love picture descriptive essays as of now =)
