I've not tested it out properly yet, as I only built it on xmas eve. I'm desperate to get this snow off the big hills, either lakes or highlands, and get it on a rockfest!.

I like white bits on my bike, prob not a good choice as its always covered in crap. Had white wheels, fork, seat post, seat, grips. Alas I upgraded to a set of pikes (which were black), which also necessitated replacement wheels (also black), and Santa brought me a dropper post (black again).

I feel the need to build up another bike with all the cast-off white bits now. (Or get some tippex ๐Ÿ˜€ )

White grips maybe aren't the best idea if your fanatical about cleanliness. Mine are more beigey now than white.

I got white and red EX1750s for my black white and red Hemlock, it looks sort of cheesy but cool. Though, I then cracked the main frame and just got the black replacement, so now i'll have white and red wheels on my black and black and black bike, which is just weird. Ah well!
