’09 Titanium Deluxe 29er

Owner: Luca Fagundes

From: Wisconsin, USA

Paint: Raw Titanium

Comments: With the trails were open where I’m at, itching to get out. Beautiful bike, colors inspired by the Brazilian flag, where I’m originally from. Custom cranks and cassette were professionally coated with a ceramic substance, which doesn’t add any weight (a small layer of the old coating is removed in the process). Contact rddale7@gmail.com, he’s my coating guy and he does amazing work at reasonable prices.

Thanks Joe. You guys are amazing at what you do. Just a quick question though, did you guys stop applying the Somerville sticker?
Roger does amazing work. You guys should def. hit em up for some show pieces. In addition to looks, the ceramic is harder than anything else I’ve seen/ridden. It doesn’t scratch, scuff, etc….and on the cassette the ceramic coating actually repels dirt/mud, it’s pretty slippery stuff.

The Somerville decal on the seat tube above the bottom bracket is something you have to request – it doesn’t automatically get put on every IF.
