What did you do to your drop outs to get them looking like that? Awesome build btw

Thanks!
It was a bit of a process. Long story short, I carefully sanded off all the paint back to the first weld (so I could hide the new paint seam later), taped off the drop out slots and repainted them. Primer, wet sanding, clear coat, polishing. Etc
The frame had never been built when I bought it, so when I first installed the wheels the old paint cracked and flaked right off. It's not perfect, but better than it was for sure.

Are you high? It's an American made, aluminum, race frame. Anyone tricking on a Pulse needs a stick in the spokes haha
