super Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Spray the forks the same blue as the frame. As for stem and bars i reckon matching them in to the colours of your wheelset can work really well, so if you've got silver hubs and black rims then get a silver stem and and black bars. having said that i think it only works if the colours are fairly neutral, and of course depends on what other colours you got going on. You don't want be rolling on a rainbow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrialsIsHard Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Forks- White (blue and white always look badass) As for bar and stem, something neutral as above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
