Wyatt Earp Posted April 22, 2014 Share Hi all you hubbers, pimps and gear gurus.I have been riding my Ritchey P29 pretty hard for the past 30 months.The frame is looking pretty ragged and I want the super talented Bogus to respray it for me. Post any ideas you think that might be cool in this thread so I ca get some creative juices flowing and get Bogus all excited for his task at hand. This is the frame here. http://ritcheylogic.com/media/catalog/product/cache/7/image/9df78eab33525d08d6e5fb8d27136e95/p/-/p-29er-frame-2012.jpg Depending on the colour and style to be done, it can be matched with either of these two forks.

fanievb Posted April 22, 2014 Share how about white base with black decals and tattoos? tattoos can be handwritten personal messages written by your kids & wife, copied by SIR Bogus and sprayed onto the frame (pinstriping kinda thing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steven Knoetze (sk27) Posted April 22, 2014 Share Think you should send that ragged old frame to me, as a donation obviously, and then treat yourself to a new one.You deserve it....... on a serious note, I would keep the colour scheme as it is. Iconic.Maybe just do a few custom touches to it to make it unique. Change the font or add a few pin stripes here and there. Good luck, with Bogus one you can't go wrong!!!

DIPSLICK Posted April 22, 2014 Share personally i would respray it EXACTLY THE SAME COLOR , i think its the best part of the ritchey frame...........but thats just my R0;02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyatt Earp Posted April 22, 2014 Share As much as I like the original look and colour, and as much as it looks like the old P21's and P22's.I am hungry for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BE HONEST NOW No, I never blew a gasket.They were complaining about the colour and saying they won't buy the bike based on the colour and I pointed out that it was a shallow approach.

Hairy Posted April 22, 2014 Share If you are going to respray a Ritchey steel frame, at least spray it like a Ritchey steel frame .... http://blogs.bicycling.com/blogs/thestraightdirt/files/2011/05/Ritchey-comp-head-badge2.jpg http://www.cyclingweekly.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2013/04/Richey_Road_Logic_steel.jpg http://rcdn.roadbikereview.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/5.jpg http://rcdn.roadbikereview.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/4.jpg http://rcdn.roadbikereview.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
