Syntace logos can be removed in seconds with a little acetone without damage to the finish.

One more: How come your using nokons for the brakes at the front of the bike but not at the back or for the shifting? Also get some #06 orings and get rid of the cables beads a much cleaner solution, 3 per cable contact point works pretty good Darn nice bike. I have a hankering for a z1 some day _________________ http://fairwheelbikes.com/cycling-blog/ ... ee-z5.html

I have a hankering for a z1 some day I've had the Nokons from my previous bike and only some of the brake housing remained. I had to use what was readily available here in Lebanon, which is the Jagwire set for the shifting. Will look at the O-ring option you noted. Thanks all for the comments _________________ My Parlee Z1
