my white Charge Spoon is still white despite being on the bike for over 1yr.

cleaned it maybe twice in that time and that was only ever a wipe down with a damp cloth.

Saddles maybe...but white grips are just silly! Some bikes can look cool on the shopfloor, but it's a crap idea for the real world.
