    right then, thinking of getting some white rims but cannot decide if they will look good on the bike or not, so i was hoping you guys would provide me with pics of bikes with white rims.

    thanks for all your help chaps and chapesses

    There are far too many pics of my bike on here but your twisting my arm.

    And after seeing andy@crcs thread I think I might get some white hoses and outer cable too.

    although, if i had white rims, would i also need white bars to off-set the whiteness?

    I just went for a white saddle as I like my bars and my saddle needed replacing.

    I fancied white rims on my Pitch Comp, but went with Hope Hoops as they were silly cheap when I got them (£210!!)

    How easy is it to fit new hoops to the existing set up?

    Hopefully, the various pics on here will have helped you come to the conclusion that white rims look awful.

    That is all.

    now that would be a bugger to clean. Mind you, it must win the prize for most expensive singlespeed.

    Surly a Jones would win that prize? It could win heaviest SS tho.

    Yes, that’s the fastest it goes, and the highest off the ground it gets. I’ve got rid of the daft uncomfortable white saddle as well – nice bit of kit, just didn’t match my arse.

    Don’t do the white grips thing though – you may as well buy some nice brown ones and be done with it.

    Just ordered some white rims for my new build, can’t for the life of me track down any white spokes at the moment so building with silver ones until someone over the otherside of the pond starts to reply to my emails!

    Pics in 8 or 9 weeks when the frame arrives and the Niche machine gets built!

    You’re very kind, but they’re silver (and match the Golf!)…. nice idea though – you’ve got me thinking now..!

    BTW – the rims are the Syncros FL DS23 and Lifecycles did an awesome job in buiilding them onto my existing Hope SP3 hubs. Lifecycles have a good selection of white hoops – from Syncros and Spank, I think.
