Ive gone full silver hope on a ‘limited addition’ green Solaris and really like the combo.

Never really liked OTT coloured bikes, fashions fade but style remains 😉

I expect to keep this bike for a good few years and When the anodising eventually rubs of my silver hope bits they will look,,,,,,, silver 😁

I’m on the silver or black side too I think. But who cares what everyone thinks!

Sure I saw a full red, gold and green Rasta theme once. In fairness it actually looked good, yeah if I had to pick bright I’m going red, gold and green, just like my dreams etc

When did hope start having a problem with fading?ive had loads of hope over the years and never had a problem. Have they changed the anodising process recently.

I have an all black Transition Smuggler with orange callipers and blue rotors, and some blue pinstripe bits on the bars (Chromag). I like it, but might not be for everyone.

black with coloured bore caps, a coloured lever and black reach screws.
my mate has a Ti frame and silver look good

check out slam69 for Green anodised kit: Reservoir caps £6.5, lever pivot £2.5
SJS cycles / tarty bikes / tweeks for Green levers or Bore caps.
(or buy them on ebay for 5x-12x the price)

to finish black top cap with coloured bolt.

ta11pau1 wins it so far.

With the addition of a red seat collar it would be spot on.👍
