While I'm waiting on my cylinder to get back from GT Thunder I'm working on some other stuff on my bike that needs attention. Whoever had my bike before me thought it would be a good idea to paint the axle and hubs yellow, with no prep work at all from the looks of it. Of course it's peeling off and generally looking like poo, so I hit it with a wire wheel to knock all the paint and rust off. Now that it's bare metal would painting it be better or just leaving it bare? Of course I'd scuff it up and clean it, and just paint it black. Not too worried about the color, just want to keep it from rusting and looking bad.

The wire wheel started taking some of the factory paint off the hub so I slacked off on it. I'll pull em off, strip and paint them back red if that would be best.
