Vespertine is a one-off T Line hand-finished in Cerakote Colorshift Mystique by Black Magic Paint, our Portland neighbors and a Cerakote Factory Certified Applicator whose client list includes ENVE, Mosaic, Moots, Open, Pinarello, and Specialized. The finish shifts through purple, teal, and bronze as the light moves across it.
Show full description and specs
Cerakote is a polymer-ceramic coating, hand-sprayed and oven-cured, molecularly bonded to the titanium at just 40 microns thick (about half the width of a human hair). The result is a frame harder, more corrosion-resistant, and more luminous than any paint could manage, and a finish normally reserved for high-end boutique builds.
To make Vespertine, the bike was disassembled to the bare titanium frame, sent a few miles across town to BMP for refinishing, then meticulously rebuilt by our master mechanic Aaron around a hand-selected set of Paul Component, White Industries, SimWorks, Chris King, Onyx Racing, and Brooks parts. 4-speed, 16", folds like any other Brompton.
