Torn between getting the Planet x SL Pro Carbon in Black or Blue. What do you guys think (the picture of the blue frame is at the bottom of the web page here, click it to get a bigger picture) : http://www.planet-x-warehouse.co.uk/?page_id=1049

    Black for me, the blue looks a little vulgar for my tastes
    Pictures are better than words because some words are big and hard to understand.

    I really like the blue, I have a blue stealth pro carbon TT bike, it's a nice change from another black bike.

    I liked the blue one but I bought on the recent special offer and it was +£50 which I couldn't afford/justify.
    There will be a lot less blue ones around than black ones

    i think the limited run of pink looks the best. out of blue and black, i think black looks best.

    Was fully expecting to say black... However when I enlarged the blue one I am pleasantly surprised. So for me it would be the Blue one

    That's one ugly frame.
    Sorry if your offended but the headtube design outs me right off.
    So based on that I'd go for the black as it will at least hide its lines better

    you might regret the blue - as it is the sort of thing you might "go-off" - but the black you won't tire of and it won't age like the blue one might

    don't get me wrong - the blue looks nice - but I'd buy the black one

    black – and you won't have to worry about the colours of your clothes.

    I'd get a white one :)

    Between black and blue it'd have to be black though, safe but you won't look like a fashion disaster if you have any red kit .. see above ^

    Black.

    I don't normally like black frames as it just looks like they couldn't be bothered to paint them, but the graphics on that one set it off rather well.

    Blue

    I got a black one, the blue was outside the budget (Cyclescheme limit). I like the black but I think the blue looks cooler, doesn't shout (cheap) carbon to those not in the know, and I think the overall effect is more classy. Not to worried having the black though, as the bike is superb and makes me smile whenever I ride it!
