ADEN_ECHO Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 You can get pink try-all rims, but you could spray your rims if you wanted but I personally think that a plain colour like black or silver would look nicer than having your bike done up with lots of colours. A nice little touch to make your bike look nice though is to get coloured nipples, they dont cost to much but they do make the bike look good.Aden.

Adam-Griffin Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 I tried the whole pink colour scheme thing, it looked good at first, but when the novelty wore off, it looked really gay, was going to spray them but really couldn't be arsed, i'd just advise black/white/silver, keep it plain and simple, something you're not going to get bored of.Heres my bike with Pink rims...If you do decide to go pink, Gusset do Pink Slim Jim pedals, most manufactureres do pink rims, i belive V!z do a wide selection of pink compnents aswell.I'd only spray rims etc if youre planning on spraying things and not buying them as i doubt you will get a can of pink that would match EXACTLY the colour.Just my 2p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Lad Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 would that be like erm everything INCLUDING the frame and handle bars??just not the chain, sprockets, tyres and rims (depending on whether you use rim or disc brakes).Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider Lad Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 (edited) heyy,i found some pink grips i wanthttp://www.tartybikes.co.uk/product.php?pr...;category_id=17anyone think there good?You want them, you get them. Whether they're "good" or not is purely subjective and peoples opinions on something as daft as grips can vary widely in my experience.would i be able to spray the cables?Yes.Would it flake off and look gash? Yes. Edited August 6, 2008 by DLB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
