Thats sweet! When my paint job eventually dies at least it'll look good raw'd before I could be bothered painting it myself!

When you rawed the frame did you find a coating on the aluminum under the paint (possibly primer)? because I started my frame and in parts the stripper went down to the aluminum but mostly there is this easily scratchable bad looking coating on it.

2: i hav not cranks heads on my cranks bolts, so my bolt is flush. no, my cranks donot come loose. how do i get it out?

QR is 9mm which is probably what you have. I run 10mm bolt on

I just used some super strong paint remover.(i like burn you skin if you get it on your skin)It took about five minutes to get the first coat of the stuff off i did it about five times until all the colour was gone. There may be a primer layer but on mine it is barely visible. I am going to get a can of clear coat and you use that a couple of times that should stop it getting scratched.

would a oddyssey linear cable be long enough for an stp running bb5 brakes?

they come pritty long and you cut them down to fit your size. so it should. check the winstanleys bmx website or maybe the odyssey site and see if its got the length. then measure yours. and see what difference there is.
