What colours look cool together on a bike?

As the title says...
Lots of bling colours, or stealth looks going on!

What do you think looks good?
And what would go with a metallic blue frame? In terms of parts (chainstay, new bars, pedals etc)

Mud.

All looks the same when it's plastered in mud.
Don't really see the point in colour co-ordinating bikes

Theres plenty of them on here lol....

Mud & blood look pretty good together

Look at Pastey's bikes in the 'your bikes' section

What you want is at least 8 different colours on the same bike. Any fewer and you may as well not bother.

What ever is going cheap on CRC, so I personally go for the Christmas tree look

You definitely need to respray your frame brown and find some pink wheels, red handlebars, a blue saddle and spray your mechs and chain lime green. This is widely regarded to be the coolest combination and the sign of a true pro. You will be the hippest dawg in the hood with a brown, pink, red, blue and green bike..

"serious colours" - Gun metal grey / Silver - goes well with most colours
"fun colours" - Blue / Latte / Yellow / Red / Pink / with stripes - or any colours you see on a Mini Cooper.
