flat would def be easier. gloss black shows every imperfection. prepping the frame (i.e. sanding, cleaning, tack clothing) will be the key to having a lasting paint job. A degreaser will probably also be necessary. I'm sure you know about taking your time and masking all bearing races well, even if you have sealed bearings in your crank a little paint may cause fitment issues.

Linc can definitely give more and better suggestions.
