I had an entire post written about the inherent coolness of green metal flake, or sparkle if you will. I think this photo illustrates my point better than I could ever write. When it comes to custom bikes, you could do worse than a paint job like this. This would also be the appropriate use of green metalflake grips for you negative commentors. I'm pretty sure that when the time comes to paint my Sprint it will look something like this. Bike built by John Collins of Houston, TX and photographed by Gary Griffin.
