[#7030150]

Im getting a new frame that's black with black decals. Il probably put a black pike on it. What I'm not sure is ton wether to continue with the full black murdered out look or go for a strong accent colour for bars, pedals, hubs etc. it's a new build with all existing parts refurbishing the hardtail so it's a blank palate for this one,

Inspire me

This looked good, while I was still waiting for mine and therefore second-guessing my colour choice:

From way before murdered out was in vogue and people worried about aligning valves and tyre logos;

Cotic call it Gritstone, but it's as near as damnit black. Went with a cheesy 80s black and red theme.

Not the blackest bike on here by any stretch, but it might have been a few years ago - age has to count for something right? ๐Ÿ˜‰

This is mostly black, with just enough not-black IMO!

Thanks Hora! I was debating whether to try BOS, but then decided to stick with what I know. Enjoy the build, and riding the new bike!

Some decidedly not black/black bikes on this thread.

So I may as well throw mine into the mix. I have considered putting black decals on in place of the white bits but it's currently covered in filth anyway ๐Ÿ™‚

Akin I've destroyed one inner when it became wrapped round the internal main pivot when routing cables. Argh. Will botch it and leave that bit to someone else..
