Did you just go with black/silver components or some colour co-ordination?

Does this count? Sadly, no longer mine although I now have a 2008 red one.

Definitely black only on this one – but I reckon you could get away with silver on an all orange one?

Bit of black and silver(grey) on here.

I don't have an orange bike at the mo' . . . sniff 😐 . . . but these were pretty nice . . .

All with a bit of red here and there.

go for mostly black/white/silver with maybe something like blue, purple, green bits here and there. look at some bmx/dj type bikes to get some ideas, they seem to get the colour coodination thing better than most, dmr in particular. if it were me id avoid the obvious seat qr, headset etc colour matching cos everyone seems to do that.

i wouldnt normally do colour coordination myself but hey, if you are going orange then you may as well go all out.

Mainly black with silver cranks and front mech but when they need replacing I'll go black… If I still have an orange frame. 😀

In warmer times..

I reckon a bit of blue wouldn't go amiss.

crap pic, great bike!

In chronological order…

(green forks are kewl, OK)

My Heckler when i first got it. It's not orange anymore though, it's now matt black. Never really liked the orange (it was a dull orange) so got it powder coated in the black. It's also changed hands, it's now the girlfriends bike with different kit on it.

the patriot has since got a light brown sdg seat and the rotec orange raceface atlas freeride bars which look reet good

Went for black silver and Orange* bits

*Mango not orange

ta daaa! sadly not so clean and new looking.

Orange with black and white parts!

And now, laydeez and jellyspoons, let me demonstrate how to do an orange bike properly….. 😉

(Tyres, saddle and grips changed since this pic)

I's say keep everything black with an orange bike. It looks waaaay better. 🙂

Not mine – but I know the chap who owns it is very proud and won't mind me posting it up here!
