I fully appreciate the structural and weight advantages - and understand that aesthetics are very personal. But am I the only one who'd like to have a matte (even textured) finish on CF?.
I toyed with the idea of skinning the bearclaw and side panels (I have 2 sets). But I backed down as don't want shiny if I do.
If I'm honest - The pinseal ABS finish - I rather like. But it just looks plastic-y. Maybe painted to match? I dunno.
I'm just unsure how CF would look if not polished - or somehow left satin-ish.
