    glossy paint wouldn't surely? I can see leather and grips etc going that way, but would've thought it'd just wash off paint?

    I was so close to getting a white mojo recently… but after giving it a lot of thought I went for the naked carbon.
    I decided that for my type of riding (and I'm not changing that cos of a new bike) the bike would get covered in little scuffs and scratches that would be highlighted by the local mud round here when it covered the frame and that would annoy me as new bikes aint cheap. The naked carbon looks more tool like which I like and doesn't show every little blemish. White bikes do look very nice though.

    Yes, they were the 2009 Thors. Plush and reasonably stiff, but pretty linear even when correctly set up. Nice forks, but had to sell them. From what I've read, the 2010 ones are very good.

    I've got a white bike with white forks. It came with white brakes. When I put some SPDs on it, I got some cheap white Shimanos. And for winter I've got white crud catchers front and rear…

    No piccies as it's a Carrera so not the sort of thing I thought I'd need a picture of. Great bike, though. And very white.

    Basically it's going to look gorgeous as long as you put black rims on it 😉

    Ooh I forgot I got white crud catchers too. I've been eyeing up some Shimano MP66 shoes too… 😳

    Don't go down the white grips route – I have learnt this through experience 😳

    Gotta agree there. The grips litterally looked like shite. The only good thing to come out of white grips were the white lock on collars I was left with.
