Ti Van Nicholas Zephyr (around 2012) with modern components and custom anodising

Hi all,

Well, it's all in the title really.

A group of friends decided we'd climb the Col du Tourmalet next spring, and like any sensible MAMIL, the first thing I did was to purchase a second-hand new bike.

I found this Van Nicholas Zephyr with modern component on LeBonCoin, and while the Ti Frame did look amazing after some scotch-brite, I saw that electro-anodizing was quite easy.

And it was! Here's the result!
