Are they really the only options?

Most powder coaters should have some leftover colours - ask nicely, there could be some remnants lurking on the back of the shelves.

If memory serves, you would only need about 2 kilos to run the system through and about 1 kilo to do the bike,

Then again, black sounds good for a simple clean look that would be easy to touch in should you need to.

I can obv do it most colours, I like the Matt/satin look but everybody has done it to death so a diff colour appeals

Just lose both brakes*, wear some skinny jeans, grow a beard, get an ironic haircut, and stop worrying about what you look like






* I'm joking, please don't do this!

Far better than any Security item on the market. It will never get nicked regardless of where you leave it :0)

Personally, I'd go with the satin black..........
