I got mine framed and matted. Semi-fancy frame, colored matte to match the print, UV protectant glass to protect the colors, and a slip on back to house the "info" that came with it. With labor, it came to about $230. Kevin in steamy Humboldt Park, Chicago -- You received this message be

This amused me greatly, as I'm unintentionally doing it "right". My poster is currently rolled up in the box it came in, and will probably stay that way for a while because my interest in posters exceeds the wall space to hang them. A year ago I picked up the two Bridgestone posters to replace

I'm really excited to get it. We've had a DLG in the office for years (longer than I've been there). It's beautiful, nicely framed. As usual with something like this the colors are not done justice online. The actual colors pop so nicely. Everything is balanced. The man is a true artisan. Best n

I placed my pre-order last night. I have to say, I am really excited, I checked out DLG's website and his stuff is awesome. I can't wait to see what he has done for Riv. Anyone else pre-order? 20 bucks is pretty much free for a quality poster. http://www.rivbike.com/product-p/pr6.htm --
