Come on! I have to choose really quite quickly and I just can't do it!

The red looks lovely in real life but the raw works alloy won't get scratched to f00k...

Red. Everything's bloody grey, silver, grey, these days. Have some colour on your life.

Do you think it'll be easier to re-sell the works as you can't tell if it's been scratched!?!

No idea, but it'll be easier to resell than the red one because it looks better. If you want some colour, accent it up.

It's an Intense - you don't need to worry about selling it on . . . you won't want to 😉 . Go red! . . . and anyway, [url= http://mamadirt.fotopic.net/p66588435.html ]cracked Intense's are cool[/url] 8)

It's really hard for me not to say the Raw colour purely as the picture you've chosen is sporting a CCDB...

But Red.

Raw - but without the blue bits!

Or red.

What colour are all of your bike clothes? (sorry, girly considerations there!)

Blue is lovely and would have been my first choice.

However, as the 2011 tracer is being released soon this one isn't being made/painted in blue anymore..

I'll be getting old stock hence red or raw

(well, until I can order a 2011 in works blue, aha mwha ha ha ha aha)

bike clothes? er black mostly, with a bit of dark green and/or grey... but with a blue waterproof.

I'm going to clash horribly with the red one!

Red. Raw looks like you have no style. And they go faster.

You lot seem fairly split down the middle tbh.. I was hoping to be swayed one way or t'other!

Raw, far nicer, you won't cry over scratching it as much and I'd guess re-selling would be easier, plus I've always liked the Ra works and the red looks a little cheap IMO.

I'd say raw.

No scratches to worry about, who cares about cable-rub etc etc.

Plus when you decide on a new colour its easier to powdercoat.

I have never had or considered a red bike but my Tracer came up cheapish and I love the colour. Its raw underneath with a clear red powdercoat over the top, lovely! Would prefer a blue one though.

Paintwork on those things scratches *really* easily, therefore raw wins for me.
