Still default to this in terms of style, complexity, overall harmony and just pure awesomeness (from the masters at Black Magic Paint)....

That's the one.

Busy as hell, but for some reason it speaks (shouts) to me. Not sure about the Bianchi tape though.

And yes, the Futura that kicked us off, and anything by Landshark as well.

The Wilier Trestina cromovelato finish is beautiful in my eyes and "unique" in at least that it is heavily associated with the brand. I don't see anyone else doing it in that copper finish, and I drool a little bit every time I see a nice example.

Cryptic Cycles, featuring nude carbon and a stealthy hand painted tribal-esque scheme.

There is without a doubt some crazy, mouth-watering art work here. But the problem is...for those of us who ride solo 90% of the time, no one else gets to see it. If you can't share it with someone, it's just not as much fun.

PS: Yinzerniner, who did that incredible job?

This was the first frame I thought of when I saw the title. At the time I didn’t think it would fit but now I’m thinking maybe it would have and I’m kicking myself...

Vintage mountain bikes have some of the best paint jobs ever.

Mountain Goat did California Yuppie

Potts tamoflauge

Brodie / Toxik Harold - http://www.toxikdesignlab.com/

Chris Dekerf - https://www.dekerf.com/paint/


And of course, I am biased, but I love my Speedvagen Surprise me and many of the previous years.
