Hey all, I've got a V2 scandal 29 that needs a refreash so I'm looking for some inspiration. Let's see you pics of non standard scandal colours.

Just raw it. My 26er looks superb in raw. (No pics, I'll dig one out later).

Pink.

On-One's look great in pink.
Just the frame mind, unless your going full Grayson.

There was a factory pink and raw though wasn't there? Do it in a nonfactory colour. If in doubt, atomic yellow.

Yep as northwind says better to do non factory, I'm currently considering school bus yellow or battleship grey. I do like that lime green that exiger posted though.

At so many levels...

Pompino Blue* - best colour on a bike. 🙂

*Trigger's Mum's Bathroom Blue I believe is the official colour.

Lol Matt my first single speed was a kona fire mountain I resprayed white with gold fleck which didn't really show up so it was just white to most people lol. I think those type of paint effects need a large surface area

Good call that, there's not enough brown bikes. I saw a gorgeous brown Pitch the other day with gold wheels and highlights, like a jobby rolled in glitter. But in a good way!

Get it dipped in a zebra print using a water transfer or something like that.

These are getting more available and cheaper all the time.

You can play around with it when removing the frame to stretch the print in places.

Go for something unique and striking

It should last longer than vinyl wrap and be much quicker

stevenk - where did you get that done? I'm veering towards a lime/kawasaki green for the Soul respray
