Colour choice help for my new mod build

Recommended Posts

I am in the process of putting together a mod and I am borrowing some bits from my Echo 24 (cranks, pedals, bars, stem, etc), so I thought I'd share some pics before I take it to bits. The top pic shows what the bike looked like before Echo kindly swapped the black forks and bars for raw ones, and now I am trying to think which combination looks better for my new build, perhaps you guys can help me decide (post pics etc) between black and silver for following bits:

  • Bars: Black | Silver
  • Fork: Black | Silver
  • Brake levers: Avid FR5 Silver | Black
  • Headset: Black | Red (hub will be red too and nipples may also be red).

Stem will defo be black as I don't want to buy a new one, and the wheels will be black rim, red hub, black spokes and red or silver nipples, spokes and nipples being supplied by the wheel builder. The third pic shows roughly what I have in mind. Incidentally, are alu nipples OK for trials or do you guys recommend standard brass / steel nipples?
