Would you call 'mango' gold? Or is it more orange?

Just wondering like…

No it’s ginger.

For me, it’s not loading.

nah. it’s a fruit

So it’s kind of a ‘dark gold’ perhaps?

No, it’s orange IMO.

left= orange, right= gold(ish)

Mango is definately orange 🙂

’tis the colour of cheap cider.

grrrr… that’s what I was concluding as well… would mango hubs work with gold Stans Flow rims do you think?

god I’m a tart… 🙁 😳 😆

Definitely ginger.

You do all realise that you’re all looking at different colours, unless your monitors have been gamma corrected?

*pushes glasses up nose with forefinger*

indeed… and I’m colour blind anyway! 😆

Mango would def be better with black rims and spokes.

It’ll show up the colour more.

Not only that al but they do the King anodising in batches and the different batches all come out slightly different colours anyway.

So if you’re buying hubs buy them as a pair.

just to humour your obvious madness for a second.. what colour is your frame?

Green?

Black or silver, all you need 😀

Also, avoiding King products also leave beer money for Friday nights!

It’s a toss up between one of these… always liked a black/gold (and mango obviously 😆 ) colour scheme, not so sure on a white/gold/black scheme…

Chris king Mango is definitely an orange colour,not a gold,Just sold my Mango hubs.

well, I think it will look quite pimpy on white or black. But then you have to arrive at trail centres and people like me will take the piss. Unless you are very well built or good at riding your bike, then I’d just ignore you and your pimpy cider coloured hubs!

Ja… to me 😉 For my Ibis build they will be, but I was planning a more gold themed event, worried now that mango might be spoiling the party… 😆

I’m kind of wanting to replicate the Crank Brothers Iodine wheelset really…

I don’t even know what you are talking about. so with that, I’m out!

… so just do black or silver hubs. You can overdo the anodising you know … and it sounds like there is goingto be plenty of gold on your dandyhorse …

Cannondale Mango = Orange.

I might be interested in them back.

My montane smock is mango, and I’d say that cannondale is mango too. Those hubs are not gold or mango imo, more like orange or copper

Chris king mango is quite a good match for tango orange Sram kit.
