    If say for example one was to buy a red frame with white decals, the obvious things would be to go for White forks, saddle and bars n’ grips (Probably Peaty Patriots).

    What colour headset, BB, seat clamp and skewers would you go for?

    I was thinking either blue or smokey grey (as hope come in those colours).

    Rims & hubs would be nice but would topple the budget and i have two sets of perfectly good Hope Hoops already.

    Might go as far as white cable outers too 😯

    Here’s my red bike with white stickers…

    Wish I’d got the white Rev Dual Air, rather than black U-turn!

    As for headset and bits – black!

    White forks and saddle, yes. White bars and grips, no – the grips will get very dirty and will look gash against a white bar. Everything else should be black, make the few coloured bits stand out more that way.

    White bars is a no, white grips on black bars look OK though IMO.

    They don’t go that brown.

    Flip = Patio would be a generous description.
