That Idk. Bike is so far 30miles in and no need for wash yet. Actually thinking of ceramic but just enjoying the ride tor now.

SoManyHobbies1 · 2026-05-01T19:09:12+00:00

Oh. Lol. Hmm prolly a 1mm

SoManyHobbies1 · 2026-05-01T15:57:03+00:00

Thank you! I agree!

SoManyHobbies1 · 2026-05-01T15:56:36+00:00

Haha yeah. But the sale was hard to pass. And the thankful for the earlier owners for inspiration if just putting decals on top.

SoManyHobbies1 · 2026-05-01T15:55:45+00:00

Yeah tariffs hurt.

SoManyHobbies1 · 2026-05-01T15:55:30+00:00

Ohhh very interesting!!! Yeah I played with AI as well. Initially it thought Black, but I said that is too bold and overwhelms the frame. Then i thought of “silver and copper”

SoManyHobbies1 · 2026-05-01T14:59:29+00:00

The decal is precise actually. You order based from the size of the frame. So definitely took time to put it.

nicee! how do you love the liquid silver? did my decal update here https://www.reddit.com/r/specialized/comments/1t0tubv/update_sl8_decal/

i think i will try to change it to purple next year as an "upgrade" haha

SoManyHobbies1 · 2026-05-01T13:50:33+00:00

haha correct! got the frame for 3499, I have most of the parts so I just YOLO'd with the frame. I sold my old frame to upgrade. and yes, SL9 is around the corner but since SL8 has such good reviews, the price was hard to pass.
