I wanted silver on my latest bike & was struggling to find this chainset on its own, in the right configuration. I nearly ended up buying a full Dura Ace groupset for £900 & would have had to sell all the other bits off but in the end Merlin had one in for £300 or £350 & I really didn't want black or dark grey

What colour is the bike ? I like a contrast.

Black

If I had seen the bike first I would have voted black. Too late now though...!

Unfortunately, there are already too many black components, which is just too boring for me personally. Silver, on the other hand, seems timeless and classic.

Is that like "horizontal jogging"?

Depends what you ride.

He's only showed the frame so far and there's more white than black!

I think a black chainset, white saddle and bar tape.

Of course, you always have a few options, because the rest of the design has not yet been determined. In theory, he could also use a white crankset, white fork and black saddle. In the end, it's always a matter of taste.

Of course. It was just my opinion based on the frame being white at the top and black at the bottom. I didn't expect everyone to agree with me.

Ok, according to your suggestion to use a white saddle, what color should the seatpost be? Wouldn't silver look good then?
