What colour?

[Joe24]

I'm getting my 531 frame spayed and i am stuck between what colours.
At first i thought of yellow and getting all the shiny bits very shiny.
Then i had an idea of a lime green with bright yellow bar tape(if i can find it.)
Or maybe a red, but i dont want it to fade to pink.
Would it be bad to have a lime green frame? I think it might look pretty good, but dont want it look naff.
What do you reckon. I tried to put a frame on photoshop and fill the colour on but i couldnt get it to look right.
So would lime green be too bright?
Cheers

Dark blue.

Dark blue is too suttle, it just doesnt stand out enough.
Although it might look good with the chrome.

Bananna or snot.. the choice is yours.

Out of the two I'd go for the yellow. Have you thought of easyjet orange?

 

[Milo]

If you gotta go bright get red its the fastest color

 

[Joe24]

Ooo easyjet orange. Now that might look good. Red is not the fastest colour. What is the fastest colour?

 

[Milo]

Red duh

 

[tdr1nka]

Is the fastest colour brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrown?

Is it anything like this frame

 

[Milo]

BLue bikes do look the coolest joe.
Hmm I want a a
spray job.

A long time ago, I sprayed an old Carlton frame in metalflake brown - it was delicious and, in contemporary mood, I suggest metalflake grey. Accessorize in red...maybe white/black lettering.
Perfect!

Pearl White with red lettering - then add red tyres, black saddle and bar tape...

 

[Joe24]

No abit brighter then that bike. I was thinking of a bright lime green. Do you think it would be less attractive to theives in lime green. What would metal-flake grey or red be like(ok red may be a fast colour.)

Lime green is just foul dont be silly.

 

[Joe24]

Did think of a bright white. But with either a black or white bar tape. Although red tape and wheels would look pretty good. Be hard to keep clean though?
