Raleigh Copper Project

The saddle was the inspiration for the bike. Initially I wanted to copper plate the frame and fork, but I couldnt get any of my area platers to do it. I settled for powdercoat to look like copper, then masqued off the lugs and painted the tubes green, then clear over the whole bike. The Tanaka brass fenders are neat, but I've gotta get them dialed in still for fit and gap. I died some leather to match the saddle and stitched it to the bars AKA velo-orange style, of course my camera broke so no photos of those.
