White pedals and get a black bash
Hmm, I've only just got the White MRP too - would be an expensive swap to black :-S
I'd fo for a white saddle instead - balance it out a bit. That red is really nice though
White pedals,White bars,White grips,White cable outers, White and black saddle.
Neither white pedals nor white grips stay white for very long. They turn a miserable off-white colour, and grips in particular often never return from this state.
White pedals will be fine, apart from the paint may chip off of some varities a bit easy (SSC for example).
And also get white grips next time you change.
white saddle needed too
I would say red pedals white saddle.
On my Candy Red Nic' I've got white pedals, grips, forks, saddle & brakes - looks mint IMHO
Actually on my iO I have the same combo with a bronze/brown frame ๐
White EVERYTHING!

I think the only thing that has really lost it's whiteness after over a year of riding is the bar tape, and that's easily replaced.

Samuri: beautiful
Hmm, I see what you all mean about needing a white saddle - I'm just convinced it'd turn brown pretty sharpish!
I think I might go for the white pedals although they do seem to chip easily..
That pompino looks lovely!!
I have a problem with three coloured bikes, the controls/saddle/post/pedals have to be one colour or the colour of the frame. Otherwise it looks a bit weird. . In your case black pedals if you are planning on leaving everything else black otherwise white. White on that red would look really nice and different ... i think ๐
