  • Good choice with the paint BTW….. I’ve not seen iron based rust effect paint used locally like Caren has on this - looks good. I’ve only seen it used on entire bikes, which is a bit OTT IMO. (I’m assuming Caren has done the paint on your frame?)

    Pre-fucked paint is deffo the way for off road bikes. It’s what I did on my Topstone….. albeit much less thought out than your Isen. I did mine over two lunch breaks just using whatever leftover mixed colours I had used that week that were still useable and hadn’t chucked out yet….. minimal thought/effort was put into it! (Mostly due to laziness!)

  • Daymn that looks good

  • Your bike is where I got the ideas from! I’m actually quite impressed how authentic they managed to make it look after doing so many fade paint jobs.

    The headtube badge is untreated steel so it will go rusty eventually, another Caren’s handiwork.
