Willsey Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 I just bought some green rims for my zona, as im trying to get most things green on it and colour coded.. but i was just wondering if many people like it?I think mine 'should' go ok, as the frame is chrome and the stickers are green, so it wont clash with the frame and just look.. erm.. *thinks of a un-naughty word*... pants!Ill try and get some pics up when they come! Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom_ Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 I do quite like them although for my bike I am thinking of getting black rims as they will go with watever frame i get next and I wont need new rims if colour ever goes out of fashion.But they are quite nice. Zona sounds nice I think the green will look good tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom_ Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 (edited) You are trying to copy zoos nah I'm joking. I dont personaly like the zoos with green rims looks a bit over the top. But the zona is a little less green so should look good Edited September 3, 2006 by tom132 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 You can't get colourless rims, so everyone like's them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonCongreve Posted September 3, 2006 Report Share Posted September 3, 2006 Some bikes look really good when they're colour co-ordinated, so to tell the truth i don't mind it at all. I prefer either black or white for rims, nice and clean looking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT! Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 The art of using colour on your bike and making actually look good is being subtle.Green rims on a chrome zona zip will look good. But if you start putting other green things on there such as pedals, bars, maguras. It'll look crap.I'd get the green rims, but leave it at that as far as colour goes. Have eveything else black or silver.I really don't like parts's bike for that reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koop. Posted September 4, 2006 Report Share Posted September 4, 2006 Green rims are fine and for that matter any colour rims are okay. Infact the more individual looking your bike is the better, so many bikes are colour themed in the same way its always good to see something different. However, I'm sure you want to retain some level of good taste in the look of your bike so i would suggest not going over the top with the green and sticking to a maximum of three well balanced colours. Green black and silver for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
