ogre Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 Was wondering if there where any white hubs available for a mod, melikes the look of the new try all rims, or would silver go better with a white rim? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fredrico Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 Aha you have the same idea as me, im think of getting those white rims but i dont think you can get white hubs so im getting silver, either way it will still look good with white or silver.

ogre Posted May 1, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 (edited) Would it be ok to spray a hub (or would the paint chip off) there arent many white parts around though i've noticed which is a bit poo! juoi how do you think a zip would look sprayed, white at the rear, black in the middle and then white at the front end?

tipsy Jock Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 White rims, black spokes and white hubs would look pretty damn good i reckon. you could just spray your hubs, provided you're careful when you build the wheel back up it should be ok.

TomN Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 Aye get a black hub instead of silver if you can't get white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony Harrison Posted May 1, 2006 Report Share Posted May 1, 2006 Yeah, don't make your first priority colour. I mean, if Shimano did a hub that was white with 3 engagement points, would you buy that? In fact, don't answer, because you probably would buy it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deonn h Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 why the f**k are you all stressing at me because i want a decent looking bike?I won`t make a major dofference if your hub is black instead of white. I`t will still look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RicH_87 Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 i've seen tons of people spray hubs, even whilst they are still laced up and they've been fine.paint it if you want.black would look good to though, like deonn says.don't paint you're bike black AND white though, especially not in a fade, it would look like a skunk or a zebra or something equally rediculous.infact, thinking back after typing this out, i'm sure i saw some guy with white hubs on a stock bike which he had made a custom brake mount for or something, i can't really remember.

skandy32 Posted May 2, 2006 Report Share Posted May 2, 2006 I've tryed hunting down white bits of bike many a time, but never found white mtb hubs. Heres the result of my white bike.I'm just showing my bike off , there is 'some' relevance. If you look at the pics, my front wheel is black hub/white rim, and the rear silver hub/white rim. Just so you can see how it looks Personally i'd go with Black hub, white rim, either silver or black spokes would be fine. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
