Davidson Mk.V:  Red Star Livery

Red Star Davidson titanium

I finally decided on a paint scheme for my Davidson titanium, one that keeps much of the metal bare but still brings the fork into the overall image. I despise forks that don’t match or at least compliment the frame. With the goal of unifying the Enve carbon fork with a titanium frame, the fork is painted colour #5086 titanium with electric blue on the front face. Painting the front of the seat tube and a small portion of the down tube echoes that pattern. Paint will never exactly duplicate the look of a brushed metal surface, but by adding the blue to both the frame and fork, the difference between brushed titanium and titanium-coloured paint becomes less apparent. The red stars are a graphic theme that I end up applying to a lot of my possessions.
