NotStock Photography Visit: Part 2

John Jackson was visiting us on behalf of PPG, so he spent some time in the paint booth with Chris as he sprayed a Steel Factory Lightweight. This frame was painted Boss Blue and Hot Pink with pink on white decals, topped off with a matte clear coat.

We snapped a few photos of the completed frame before it shipped.

NotStock Photography Visit: Part 1

This summer John Jackson of NotStock Photography came out from Texas to visit the IF factory. For those of you who don't know John, he travels the country shooting photos of beautiful hot rods and motorcycles. Here are a few photos from his visit.

Custom Track Frame

Here's a special steel track frame shown in Gloss Black with Army Green and White top tube details (similar to the SSR Max from NAHBS 2012). This frame features a 44mm head tube, which paired up nicely with a tapered Serenity track fork.

Vanilla X

Here's a new Planet X in Vanilla Shake with Vanilla Shake logos on Black and Corsa Red panels. This frame features an all-over matte clear coat.

Corvid for Cody

Here's a new Corvid for Cody. His frame features internally-routed wiring for Shimano Di2 9000 with an internal seatpost-mounted battery. His paint scheme is simple: small touches of White and Gold Metallic on the down tube and inside the fork blades.
