Thinking if swapping my bars for renthal, does anyone have one on a green bike?
Wondering if it would look ok or just wrong.
Don't want to buy one and then find out it's a no no

It will look quality.........as in like a quality street sweet wrapper 🙂

Deadkenny,
Are they the carbon bars in black/gold?
They look ace, probably more so cos there black.
Thanks
Yes, carbon fatbar. Pic doesn't show off the bars really, but the black fits in with the other black bits. Has a creamy/gold middle bit that matches the stem and I suppose the grips.
The clash I have though is no riding tops or helmet that go with green 😀

Looks ace, exactly what I'm after.
Cheers
I'm no expert on style, but that Santa Cruz looks 100% correct to me.

Yes. Matches the fork and shock stanchions great.

* cough * grip and saddle miss-match
Gold bars with the green grips looks pretty good to.

Ah, I didn't notice that...but the grips look like those pale gold Rental lock ons to me, which leaves very little opportunity for a matching saddle. I'm prepared to overlook this one minor issue.

I love Ruffians and have plenty of black spares, but saw them on CRC. Pure vanity purchase. 😉
Yeah, the grips aren't quite the same gold as on the bars. They're a bit worn and mucked up though. Not sure I like them. Bit snot coloured really 😀
Could do with some matching decals on the fork but too much faff.
Has got matching green chain though 😀 . Not sure I'll stick with that. Not cheap.
