i'm gonna have to agree w/ the others, black and red bartape on a bike that has mostly white with pastel blue and green accents?

obviously the color of bartape is purely aesthetic, so calling someone a snob for not wanting to ugly up a bike, a very pretty classic bike at that... that's just wrong.

my vote goes for white... and riding around with grey bartape is an honorable thing, something that should be done with head held high, it shows the thing was put to use, lots of use. as dirty as it may be, it's still a beautiful thing.
