Just striped down my 5 spot and in its naked form its starting to look its age
So I thought to re-spray the frame as one of my Painters at work is a De-Vinci with a cup gun
problem is what color ?
So....... Which color scheme would look good but appeal to everyone if this is possible
ideas on a post card please
I've seen a really really nice orangey/red one and is probably the colour I'd go for when mine needs doing. Some of these speckled colours are cool - Ellsworth do some nice ones.
Look at old Kleins.....
Just a thought could re-spray the rear sub-frame or re-anodize
Just to make it a little bit more bespoke
Done something similar with my Lapierre Froggy
Sangria or copper...or polished...er 5Spot sub frames must be polished, it's the law
Loads to look at on the Turner forum on MTBR.com, but I have a similar decision to make sometime soon, might go with black, possibly matt. Here's one:

I think you'll find you're mistaken.....green and blue (ye olde Kawasaki colour scheme)
Oh and for unspiration, don't go with silver together with a polished back end, and then never clean it.
I like that flux
mines like a sparkling purple/black but just looks black here im afraid
Mine is just black, but I like silver spokes.

Can you post a pic of your froggy?
The factory yellow with some red forks would be my choice...
Definitely yellow - here's mine having been resprayed.....
Black's doin it for me, with the silver/polished rear, the yellow is cool in an almost retro kind of way!
Would love to post a pic of my Froggy but this site is a bit of a nightmare to post pics on
Could email it if some one could post it for me
Mine was yellow when I got it
Having a few issues posting pics on this site
Is there an easy way ?
If you only have the pic on your PC you are a bit stuffed, you need to link to it somewhere.
The first black bike for instance is at http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f278/firestarter4075/22042010024.jpg
so you click the "IMG" button when you are posting a reply, stick the link to the picture in, then click the "/IMG" at the end of the link.
That would give you;
in your reply.
the image needs to be hosted on a website like fotopic or flickr.
you then have to put [ img ] (without the spaces) then the link to the pic eg http://images.fotopic.net/?iid=yur39r&outx=800&quality=70 then put [ /img ] (without the spaces)
and then it should work
or alternatively use the IMG button above to do the linky bit. It'll still need to be hosted tho'
