Hi,

I was tinkering with the idea last night while I was dozing off to getting my bike resprayed and maybe the forks as well but what colour should I go for? i was thinking maybe white frame/forks? but white is boring..

OOO don't get Mr MC on here, he LOVES white bikes! Although Trimix will say that white isn't a colour! How about a metallic blue? What's your favourite colour? What bike is it?

I was just pondering this question myself, as I'm thinking of cleaning up my Langster and changing it from it's original 'rust' colour, lime green is an option I'm considering, something so the motorist can see me

Anthracite

not too flashy, but lovely, and not a 'normal' colour.

pink/lime green/orange bikes require you to be an amazing rider, else you look like a tit ๐Ÿ˜‰

Greeeeeeeeeeeeeeen.

Make it the right green though, and add a touch of sparkle. I've got a lime green one (because I am pure awesome on the bike) and a lovely sparkly emerald green one. It's fit as funk.

If I ever had a bike resprayed though, it'll be Dyno Rod Orange. Or I might just get it polished and lacquered.

Quite a nice RAL/bike frame colour selector on the Liteville site [url= http://www.liteville.de/t/25_59.html ]here[/url].

I really want a 301 - and a 101, but can afford neither ๐Ÿ™
