[davester65]

Added some new bling to your bike? Was Father Christmas good to you this year? Or have you given yourself a treat over the New Year? Show us what you got.....

I've given my Convert2 a new Ritchey finishing kit, just waiting for postie to deliver the matching bar tape.

Was thinking of using Red Bar Tape and a Red Charge Spoon, What do you think guys?

Nice bike.
If you like red bar tape and a red saddle thats what you should go with.l had red tape on my orbit several years ago and it soon looked shabby,I suppose it depends on the type of tape though.

I don't have this bike anymore TBH, but I did have red bartape on it, (Lizard Skins), so I just thought it might help you make your mind up.

Bar tape should be black, white or on the odd occasion pink! But NOT red!

@ cybernight.......looks like we got the same taste in wheels and tyres!

@ smokeysmoo.....thanks, gives me a good image of how my Convert2 would look.

@ Rob3rt.......under rule #8 it is quite permissible to have matching bar tape and saddle.....even red

 

[smokeysmoo]

@Rob3rt - that's why I sold it

@davester65 - see above

 

[davester65]

@ smokeysmoo - with that many rule infringements in one pic, i'd have sold it too

The only part you need to know with regards to rule 8 is Black, Black, Black!

Coloured tyres are criminal.
