I've got a steel frame that needs a re-spray (and some more bosses adding)..  what colour should I go for? I've got bright blue sid forks (and a set of black pikes) that it needs to go with.

Anyone got any nice pics of their blue SID equipped bike with a nice frame colour?

Could always stick to boring black..

Orange or yellow frame, *maybe* silver like the Sirius S6

Spray the fork lowers too, then you can do the frame any colour you want... or spray the frame the same colour as the forks for matchy matchy, broken up nicely by black stanchions and finishing kit.

White, perhaps with some colour coded decals to match the forks.

this, or spray frame to match the blue fork and you have a contrasting set of black ones too

obligatory blue bike picture because…well why not?!?

Yep it's a Chisel, and it is great. Don't really love the Sids apart from the colour...100mm is just a bit limiting

Yellow, but just decals and nothing else. So blue frame,blue fork.

If it were a Cannondale and you were a bit of a tart, then maybe the grips too, but that would be it, and certainly no yellow tyres
