[Closed] THANK GOD FOR ON-ONE!!

Why on earth would you?

Tell the world you got it cheap off the internet.

On one

On what?

A Joke bike with a crap name..

Let the love in commence

MMM maybe I like it not totally sure 😕

There is true potential there for people to make a truely horrible looking bike which clashing colour coded parts though 😯

Bingo!

I've already specced out my pink parts list for a fruit salad lookylikey!

I want it to offend as many naysayers as possible, I want them to vomit from 200yds...

Trouble is, every other colour scheme ive looked at since just seems dull as dishwater. A bit like derekrides.

Absolutely awesome, ain't they

That is honestly the best colour scheme I have seen in ages. I bet you didn't see many people complaining when orange brought out their fluoro colour ways.

Reminds me of the computer game Homeworld.

But, it won't match with anything else ever, will it? I like it but I can't see it building up well.

Colour-way fail, eye wash please.

I think that looks OK. No idea what would look good on it. Plain silver with mebbe the odd bit of wnite, I reckon

Not so different from a Van Dessel WTF??

😆

thought it was an on one not a santa cruz??

I think that green colour is excellent. It's not helping the temptation I have to buy a carbon 456...

I like it. 🙂

Can someone explain the RT-57 to me?

It's not an out and out race bike, so what is it? The tiny headtube rules it out as a 'sportive' bike, BB30, carbon fibre and tapered head tube rule it out as a winter trainer (i.e. none of your old parts will fit), so what is it? And will you be making a N2 in those colours as that could be a deciding factor!

Not too keen on On One but my god that is a fine paint job.

I knew you'd like it. ffs. Vile.

I'd be buggered to find a fork to match it though.

My eyes, oh my eyes

[img] [/img]

That. Looks. Amazing.

I like.

That Van Dessel is revolting though!

i like!

I like it. It makes me think of MotoGP, where neon was and always will be the height of fashion.

Nope, horrid.

Heh heh. Gotta hand it to on-one, that's beautiful and appalling in equal measure. Ive never owned anything made by them but I'm glad they do what they do, especially if it pisses off the dullards.

Well worth painting your forks to match.
As i've currently got 3 black bikes i'd be up for a change.
My only problem with it is its paint on carbon - why:-)

Lemon and Lime? Just need to add some custard coloured tyres and some gaudy annodising and it will guarantee vomit at 40 paces.

Reminds of of some of the old Klein dayglo schemes. Not that bad....

My only problem with it is its paint on carbon - why:-)

The raw carbon finish on my c456 is not pretty, but I agree - you can't polish a turd and painting it just makes it a heavier turd.

Good job it's such a sweet riding turd.

Gator-fade being my favourite Klein paintjob if we are talking tasteless fluro mtbs

the new color whipets and 456's have just landed and half of the office have fallen in love with the new GREEN colour that has been realeased

it's propper mental

Maybe they have to have crazy colours to distract from the typos? 😛

And I like it. So there.

It's not black, I like it.

Heh heh. Gotta hand it to on-one, that's beautiful and appalling in equal measure.

+100%

especially if it pisses off the dullards.

+100% x100

it's triggered a migraine, and i've been sick, but i think i like it.

If I buy one and take it for a spin throuh the woods i'm going to feel like Gandalf charging through Helms Deep - shining a piercing bright beacon. Or something.

especially if it pisses off the dullards.

So thats what you call people with taste

Flow, you dont like tubeless, 29ers, dropper seatposts and now bright colours? What do you like?

Probably to placate all the people on here who moaned about the look of the raw carbon C456.

get some Orange rims and you have a winner

people with taste / sheep, it's all the same thing

Flow, you dont like tubeless, 29ers, dropper seatposts and now bright colours? What do you like?

Obviously you need to pay more attention.

I want to try a 29er, would like a dropper post (that isn't going to break) and I thought tubeless was more hassle than its worth. I also like bright colours, but like NW said, when thats built up it will look shit.

Shocking I know, but some people actually have different opinions.

people with taste / sheep, it's all the same thing

We just call you tasteless.

I see your tasteless, and raise you a sense of humour

That'll be Delia Smith's Christmas present sorted, then.

Needs building with all black kit.

Or, just go mad: multicoloured spokes and nipples, with mismatched rim and hubs; clashing saddle, grips, stem, etc. Like someone ate a pack of highlighter pens and then puked on a rainbow unicorn dressed by a colour blind Gok Wan.

I want it to offend as many naysayers as possible, I want them to vomit from 200yds...

Wouldn't be offended, nor vomit. I would only be laughing that someone actually bought one.

So if I wanted one of those whippets and I wanted to use my Truvativ Stylo chainset how would I go about it. I'm only running a single ring so the angle grinder would take care of the fouling issues with the bottom bracket shell but how would I get it to work with the BB92.

Laughing at someone because they like something you don't like. Intelligent.

This is what I was thinking. Black everything and just let the frame, erm, speak for itself.

Just seen this. I've got a C456, in black.

I think I would be afraid to take it out of the garage if I had one of those!!

Hum, not sure on the colour, would have to see one built before making my mind up.
Someone said cheap internet? If cheap rides like a C456, then I'm happy to have saved a few quid and have a massive grin after every ride 😀

I know, it is intelligent. Thank you.

I know, it is intelligent. Thank you.

Not too keen on the Whippet, but the RT57 looks stunning in that colour scheme. Also would help you be seen on the road. Wish I had the money for a road bike lying around...

heavily reduced single speed whippet on the On One site in that colour:

Nothing wrong with clashing colours! Besides, most people play it fairly safe, like at home, with magnolia walls.

How many people have really examined colour theory here? Complementary colours don't mean the colours necessarily compliment one another, rather two complementaries contain a full complement of primaries. Red and green can look awful, or it can make a Matisse painting sing! Red, green, white and yellow may sound silly, but it can make a Lancia Italia sting!

Quite.

i like it 😀 😯

I like it too. That's no great recommendation btw 😉

Well you can pretty much guarantee that no-one would try to steal it, which is a bonus.

When are the glow-in-the-dark pompinos coming back btw?

yuk!

I like it. It's brave, different.

Does the paint on a Carbon 456 not look nice? I was quite liking the red..

When are the glow-in-the-dark pompinos coming back btw?

Paint colour discontinued.

The radiation affecting the workers production rates ? 😉
