How to paint an aluminium bike frame? How to build a gravel bike? DIY? This second part is all about painting the aluminium bike frame, in this series of shows where I will renovate my aluminium commuter bike, DIY style, into a gravel bike. I do final preparations, I prime the frame, I mask and paint a really nice color scheme, I paint logos and graphics and I apply a nice gloss clear coat.

I'm an amateur and I build the bike based on the experiences and knowledge I have gained from doing and watching Youtube videos. If you have any questions, thought or alternativ solutions, get involved in the comment section below.
