2005 five all stripped down ready to be sent back to Yorkshire for a respray..

Am umming and Arring about what colour to go for. Hot chocolate is looking favourite..

Anyone got any “real” pics of an orange in hot chocolate colour scheme??

Or any other suggestions . White or grey are others on the list but fancied something a bit different

Cheers

Plasma blue is nice, as is the Apple green. Purple is good too.

Chrome grey

Baby Blue

Taupe

not a five but i like that colour scheme

heres a brown one (is that the hot chocolate one?)

The bold colours look great with coordinated finishing kit. I went for a neutral finish as it was much easier…

Here’s a chrome one.

+1 for Chrome Grey
I had to settle for Cloud White but would have preferred the Chrome Grey.
Not sure about the Chocolate Brown, it looks like an “after” ride picture on a muddy day.
Also Disco Black appears to be really hard to maintain the finish on, so I’d avoid that.

It has to be orange or pink

creamegg, I like that one too (the blue/orange combo).

I’m also quite tempted by a neon pink respray…

Chrome grey for looking sweet and not showing the scars of battle.

Neon Orange for maximum oranginess.

Disco black with the red fleck and a tub of Autoglym

Anyone know how Orange’s Black wears, will it look tired quickly?

Could always get it polished?

They’ve got a new way to do the bare look now. Isn’t down to the bone so it doesn’t need autosol’ing all the time. Had one in there last week. Looked good.

Matt black oviously picks up marks for fun and I’ve been told the glossier blacks are a bit high maintenance. Top tube on my apple green looks dull after a long wet gritty ride.
