hey guys just a little one from me this time, on my pinnacle trojan (see persephone below) should i keep the little c- shaped cable clips that are currently keeping the cables down or should i switch to Green cable ties?
would it look better or should i not bother with such a trivial piece of decoration?

    you want them white to go with the other highlight details on the bike surely?

    Green would stand out a lot but white would match in with the rest of the kit on the bike so white gets my vote!
    if the frame make and name were green then yeah would look okay but as the only green bits might look a little odd!

    cheers for the help guys, have now decided to spray paint the little c-clips white as all my white cable ties are just a dirty clear colour, thanks again B

    If you want really white cable ties, go to Ikea, they sell a nice little box of wiring implements which includes a load of bright white ties. It's probably called a ftloooor or something, it'll be in the lighting section.
