Im thinking of getting some White flow rims on black evo hubs from Superstar for the whyte T129S but Im not sure. I want to but dont know if it will look right. I would probably match it with a white saddle.

Help me decide whether to press the button on £200 or not. 😕

Pic of bike for reference.

Blue, red or black are the only acceptable colours for rims. 🙂

White rims on a black bike generally look like an absolute dog's dinner.

Do you wear white socks on an evening out? It's the biking equivalent IMO.

Noted, forget this thread ever existed 😆

What do I spend that £200 on then?

I've had white Arch's on a previous bike (Niner Air 9)and it did look ok, just not sure about this one.

She'd probably belt me if I wasted money on a spa break and not bought her some new wheels 😆

If your frame was white then maybe (same wheels, different bike):

Yeah, this was my niner. The Arch rims were quite low profile.

Well if you can't get lime green ones to match the decals I guess white will have to do 🙂

The lime green makes it difficult for matching bits.
