You don't need to be an 'investor' to invest in Singletrack: 6 days left: 95% of target - Find out more
Thinking of getting one for commute (drop bar ver.) can decide on colour - like the brown (nobody else does!), or racing green - with gold cantis 🙂
Or should I go white? any thoughts or even better - pics, to help decide!
Always wanted a "that blue" one. It just looks right imo.
Like the one in [url= http://www.singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/pompino-owner-questions ]this[/url] thread.
brown...few brown bikes around, BRG and white too common.
My brown looks well. Natural bar tape and brown charge spoon. Like it.
Thats the fella firestarter. Looks like a racing snake version of the "that blue" 456 I had. Love the colour.
The blue is nice, but too many inbreds round my way in that colour. Thinking brown might be way to go - looking like a 50's bike may make it a little less appealing to the neds who will go off an nick the £100 supermarket full suss instead.
I have a spare charge spoon in brown, so thinking that cork bar tape would look the business.
Now just need to confirm that the Genesis day one will be too dear on bike to work scheme and go down the on-one route.
That Blue has always been a favourite colour of mine, but the white looks great in the 'metal'... I think that only the Pompetamine is available in that blue though, so you'd have to be going Alfine & disc if that's the colour you want.
Have you thought about the glow in the dark option though? 😈 There's green for the Pompino and a sort of 'off white' for the Pompetamine. Nice!

what people don't know about the brown is the fantastic metallic fleck it has in it. looks amazing in the sunshine and belies the budget frame that it is...
