eXp Round 2 -->>
« on: April 14, 2004, 12:20:37 pm »
Hello-

Back again!!  Just an update on cycling related matters... I've ordered a brand spanking new Thorn eXp frameset in black matte powdercoat (Robin assures me it's sexy & stealthy and cuts through headwinds better than other paint types and frame models).  Going with just a frameset this time around to save on money & shipping fees.  Must say, I feel like X-Mas has just taken place once again in, ahhh, April?  Cool!!

Has your other eXp been sold??? Although I agree that the powder coating is a better option ... the only fault I can find with my Nomad is that the paint is quite soft, although repair is very easy with the wee Humbrol paint pots.
cheers,
Hoogie

No, I think the eXp I was going to get originally is still for sale under the "Used & Ex-Display Models" heading at the SJS Cycles store.

Yes, I am very excited about the finish... not only the durability of powdercoating but the stealth matte black finish too!!
