1993 Klein Attitude transformation

This is my first first attempt at restoring a Klein in a linear fade paint job. The original donor frame was faded, dull and scratched all over. Fortunately the fuselage was complete and deep down underneath all there was a very nice bike. Also being a 1993 this Attitude has the larger 1 7/8" down tube and shares a 31.6 seat tube with the Adroit.

Before - it's hard to tell from the photos, but this really was a 15 foot bike...

The paint is stunning, it looks like candy...
