[Closed] Serious choice anxiety!

RAL7016 for the front and RAL4010 on the rear end

Can't take this seriously unless i can choose from the Farrow and Ball chart, sorry

Glitter. Anything with glittery sparkles.

RAL7016 for the front and RAL4010 on the rear end

I had been considering 4010 for the front to be fair, probably with 9005 rear end though.

RAL 4003 in the front, RAL 8008 in the back.

I'm with Matt.

Go sparkle or go home.

Red bikes always look good.

RAL4003 back

Red bikes always look good.

Nope. Mostly they look crap.

Lightning bolts for speed

I'm trying to find "JCB Yellow" to get my Rocket resprayed. Thought I found it on that chart (1021) but I'm not sure I can ride a bike that is sprayed "rape yellow"...

Turns out JCB yellow is 1007 so that's fine.

I think a lot of the colour choice would depend on the frame choice?

It would to me anyway. 🙂

Josh's frame is somewhat South American...

It's a bike...who cares about the colour, just get out and ride the damn thing!

Heathen! He's a witch, burn him!

If that's josh's main frame, I wouldn't like to see the swing arm.

and, Matt's right – splatter FTW.

It's going to be next year's big thing isn't it?

Hope so anyway.

Josh's frame is somewhat South American...

I Belize she might be a little Chile.

Err... exactly what frame is this for?

Err... exactly what frame is this for?

The same shade as your typical trail ground, so it always looks clean and you can stalk others while camouflaged. 😉

Problems with your colourway bro?

Get it matched to the colour of your skin and ride it naked. Will be really hard to work out pipe from pipe.

Tempting but I didn't want to be accused of being boring!

Has pretty much always been my approach in the past. Having got the choice I am now faced with severe anxiety!

Red bikes always look good.

New road bike is red and I don't want two bikes the same colour. Existing full sus is Sky Blue which would also have been a firm favourite but don't want to duplicate.

Err... exactly what frame is this for?

A new one (to me)

Liteville? They offer completely custom colours..

So do most powder coaters funnily enough! 😉

Celeste

1016, sulphur yellow. Or 1026 lumi yellow

Blimey, you're really turning into the new Hora.

Are you buying a Westie next?

Poo brown FTW.

Is it a Starling?

If so i reckon something like 5024.

Blimey, you're really turning into the new Hora.

No I actually ride my bikes! Most stick around a year or so (no real rule but working in the trade it pays to get rid before they lose too much value), but if I don't get on with it it'll go sooner. My Maverick is in the classifieds now, I've owned that 8yrs!

1016, sulphur yellow. Or 1026 lumi yellow

Strong choices, but I'd probably go for a slightly more yellow shade of yellow if that makes sense. Still bright though.

Poo brown FTW.

I guess it would hide the evidence of riding through dog eggs!

Is it a Starling?

If so i reckon something like 5024.

Couldn't possibly comment. Except to say I'm not into pastel colours. I like bold striking colours and/or a total absence of colour.

Red bikes always look good.

Nope. Mostly they look crap

STW in a nutshell.

"I like this thing."

"Your thing is crap."

Crying with laughter sharkattack, you couldn't have summed it up better!

Currently this is winning for the main frame...

Appears to have a bit of a flip to it, cos looks more purple under some lights, and blue under others.

Thinking go old school and have a black swingarm, just like I had on my 96 Orange X1!

Components will be all black and silver, Burgtec bars have Yellow logo. Reckon it should all work well together.
