Hope seem to offer quite a few colours for their BBs, hubs, spacers etc but not green as far as I can tell. Has this always been the case? Seems a bit odd considering green features heavily in their logo.

Anyway, what colour should I consider for finishing parts for my 2013 El Mariachi (black with green logo and seat clamp)? I'm considering red or yellow but will probably end up playing safe with black.

They occasionally do green for "Team" users and as a Limited edition.

Other brands (that do green) are available....

Edit: Here's a photo of my Black/Green El Mariachi...

I may start my own comapny exclusively selling green ano bike bits.

What do you reckon on "nope" for a name? Might even stylise the top of the "n" a bit.

Oof, hopefully you've had second thoughts now OP.

You could also try Nuperstar, Nis Ning and Nalsa.

The green is reserved for Factory Sponsored riders and staff. They used to offer green a long while back but it didn't sell well apparently.

Well there's no chance of me becoming a team rider so I guess green is out of the question then!

Nah **** it, I'm just gonna make "Noakleys", I understand there's a way bigger market for that kind of knock-off tat.

As above, green is for sponsored riders, mainly. Some shows up on eBay but it'll be expensive.

If your wanted green you could always get the bits re-anodised. There was at least one place offering this that I've seen mentioned.
