Im scoping out the new steed for the new year
What colour hope colour (hubs, QR, seat clamp) goes well with the Cotic blue? I reckon gold myself....
preparing for the onslaught of opinions.....heads down!
Red all the way! 😉
Got red Hope jewellery on my Green Solaris, but think it would look good on blue........
🙂
Yup seen the red on your green solaris and it does look good
got red on my current Whyte so fancied a change but now youve mentioned it...
Silver maybe?
If you got the guts for it - do Hope do bright orange stuff?
Also, don't forget - brake piston caps, grip lock-on collars, headset spacers.
Green would be sweet, if you could find the necessary.
Steed????
You'll be calling it she next.
Black and NOTHING ELSE.
Black and NOTHING ELSE.
How dull and boring...........
I've got gold skewers on my green >X< and it looks really good
Silver on blue I reckon
Black and NOTHING ELSE.
That is pretty much the rules. Silver acceptable in some cases.
In the case of something nice and simple like a Soul, you could maybe get away with a little bit of colour somewhere, but a blue frame will almost always look crap with coloured components...
Orange!
Orange!
it's the new black
Black and NOTHING ELSE.
So very, very, very true. Coloured bits always look utter guff, cheap and extremely tacky. But hey, it's your dosh.
Red, gold or orange for look at me shoutyness.
Or be sophisticated with silver or black.
I predict it'll end up looking gash, whatever you do with it.
Those baby blue cotics always do - 160mm white nodder forks, white bars, white stem, white trail centre warrior bel air saddle, white wheels, far to many front mech and dropper post cables everywhere. Such a shame.
Get a green one and put some orange or black bits on it
Gunsmoke. Nice and subtle.
*This is from a man with red Hope on a snot green Kona, and gold Hope on a white Sanderson. I clearly know nothing.
Gunsmoke. Nice and subtle.
Gritstone frame with gunsmoke Hope bits, that would look fantastic.
