i sure did! for some reason, I've had a lot of extra time on my hands lately to do mindless photos. I'm afraid to show B your cool new look. He's gonna want me to paint his electric green (and lose the tape)

Absolutely do it. The middle plastic pieces pop off of course, and the pedals are easy to remove. Remove the pads and than you can do all the paint by masking off the various parts. So you don't have to take the shell apart.

I used RUST-OLEAM 2x Utra Cover spray paint (in my case, gloss apple red) for the shell and flat black for the pedals and foam. In one day you can do the whole project.

I want to see a picture!

:)

@Marty Backe you did such a fine job on painting your Mten3 I trying to gain some inspiration before painting my new shells.

After I successfully converted my original Mten3 to tubeless, I decided to refresh its look by painting the wheel red and all the accents black. I'm happy with how it turned out and it rides great.

Newly painted Mten3

 

Looks good.  Shame about half a shopping trolley hanging off the back of it.

Gotta get me some of that carbon fiber-effect paint. :D

It looks like a kids toy sitting on those "giant" blue wheels

try taking that drone-like picture with a REAL DRONE in drone restricted DC and let me know how fast the capital police tackle you. Miss my old hood.

No doubt. A 360 with a real long stick is about as close to drone as you can get in DC; but hey. At least EUCs aren't restricted in any way. Link up with the DC Glydiators whenever you are back in your old hood; we will get a ride in.

Funny, and thanks! :D

But hey, you already did paint your Mten3. All black, right?

People should paint their wheels more. The shells accept paint nicely and you get a better looking wheel than the typical black or white model. Mine is still dinged up, but it does look nice and fresh now.

I went with gloss apple red and flat black for all the accent pieces.

Did you paint the side pads too?

Yes. The stock side pads are a light grey. I painted them flat black.

New wheel, new game ! :lol:

I don't know what was on me when I bought the Z10 after being abstinent for 6 months now. 

But I couldn't resist, and so I'm on the road again.

On my way to an old hydroelectric powerstation:

Hey, nice to hear from you. It's been a long time. :D

Congrat's on joining the Z10 club. :cheers:  Are you the only sensible German to own one? ;)
