It's called fashion Karen, look it up

I reckon Black and I'm willing to put it out there that I have a better colour matching game than most!!!!! I know how to pimp a bike. Colours are accents and shouldn't dominate unless the bike is a complete colour like a (Phhht spitting sound) Yeti. Then Black or another colour is the accent.

And here are my credentials!!!!

Everything is lovely except the hoses.

I love the hoses!!! I even used to shrink wrap them orange to de-clutter but it ended up being a massive dick drag whenever you have to service things. But in both cases black hoses would work too.

I've got three cables/hoses shrink wrapped together on the Tallboy. Was a PITA getting it all to sit right.

Agreed. Since we’re being honest here also the rotors. I fuggin hate coloured rotors. Too much of a good thing.
everything else is on point! Sorry @EsPeGe.

Plus one. Beautiful bikes. Too much orange trim....and never coloured hoses.

Nope, rotors and hoses! I was sad when I had to go back to a boring black gear cable...

And yes, nothing much matches green wise. I'm just using up all the green I have because it won't be going on the new frame...

 

[moorey]

You were on my mind as I was typing

 

[Ultra Lord]

Aha!
Yeah, your bikes are shit @EsPeGe!



i dig them. More power to you if you like cables and rotors being the wrong colours.

while we're going, who goes to all that effort and doesnt even line up the tyre logo's with the valves...on BOTH bikes

 

[wkkie]

IMHO, go nuts on the coloured bits on a solid colour frame. As long as the colours match each other.

 

[pink poodle]

We need more cammo coloured bikes.

If it can’t be black, I’d settle for blue and orange.
