That backwards fork and swoopy downtube were doing weird things to my brain. And then that Whyte...aaaagh

No white rims?
glad I could help 🙂
Steve, that Whyte is mad! 🙂
Can someone please buy some white rims so I can see a photo 😉
It seems everyone's gone for black rims. Is everyone missing an opportunity, or will it look stoopid?
White rims please. I'm tempted.
Alas, long since stolen. 😥

Ah, smashing, thank you gents.
I like Three Fish's White forks, black rims & black saddle.
I paticularly like jedi's white forks, white rims, white saddle.
Is that a Covert jedi?
its a 2012 bottlerocket 🙂
love it
Does Ti count as silver? Black forks and rims I'm afraid

I have mismatched rim colours because the back grey one was a tenner. I think it looks alright though! Just polished it up and got new forks.

white stan's rims weigh more and cause your bike to get nicked, apparently.
i have 2 silver bikes with black rims, but you can't see 'em. also i think black spokes are silly for the same reason white rims are silly. get some black rims and silver spokes, keep it traditional. ymmv.
This might help you to choose:

Black every time. White rims look guff.

Will be going back to black on me covert when funds allow (one day)
I agree with the black rims/silver spokes thing.
Recently replaced frame under warranty, did have a raw '09.

Top work guys, thanks, particularly proutster; having a photo of each was perfect!
So I'm going with white flows, matching white forks & white saddle.
Next decision: Hope hoops with black hub, black spokes & white rim, or do I spend the extra for a custom build with silver hub, silver spokes & white rim?
The other colour on the build is blue, but I think blue hubs may be overkill & a little garish.
