What colour for my frame Re-spray ???

danhargrave7

Hi all.

Just got my new frame (Curtis SX24) And TBH it needs a Re-spray and new stickers.

My main question is what colour would be best or what colours look good?

My first thought was just a matt sort of grey like the original colour, Then a mate told me how subtle and plain it would look, and i should get it in bright pink or something.

I just want it to stand out, but to still look good and not tacky which i think luminous pink and luminous green etc all look. I have seen a good Bike on the internet somewhere, but iv lost the link now, to an orange P1 which looked good.

Any ideas, thanks.

You cant do orange, I'm seriously considering doing my Trek orange. No you dont want orange!!














Did I make it clear? No orange!

baby blue is always a winner, the girlfriend just bought a carrera vulcan (i think) in baby blue and it looks fantastic. But why respray a brand new frame anyway?

It was off flea bay, so had allready been sprayed like four times, and had crap stickers plastered all over it, so i thought, hmmm... refurbish-able. il get it.

I'm a fan of Matt finish frames & glossie posh metallic shocks & additions.

Looks nice like that.

But mate it's your bike ......what do you want it to look like

Hey ... just an idea but i think an 07 Kona Cowan browny colour would look pretty cool on a SX24 but it depends on the fork colour....maybe a kona scrap (05) matt green would look good and a bit different???
