The design is set, now let's vote on the final color scheme... IF you are colorblind, just vote for what everyone else is voting for ;)

BIKE FORUMS YELLOW AND NAVY
GREEN AND NAVY
The winning color will be mocked up 2 ways: with and without a rat logo.

I'm going to close the vote in 2 days so people have time to give input and we can get ordering on a roll.

I'll say yellow, but I'm not 100% sure I'll be getting one so I won't vote...

I really like the yellow one for some reason, very good job with it.

Green is good too but yellow wins, hehe, yellow is the major color of my country's flag too so it is cool, hehehe.

I'm only getting one if its the color I want ;)

Well, maybe depending on price, too which I suppose we don't know yet anyway.

PS I feel like I need a new project now? Anyone else in another forum that needs a jersey? heh.

I like the yellow.

This poll is missing the blue and the red jerseys...

seeing as i won't be buying one, i'll abstain from voting.

regardless of that fact, i feel compelled to advise all of you NOT to vote for the yellow.

Looks great, artifice! If I wore jerseys, I'd probably pick one up. :)


i feel compelled to advise all of you NOT to vote for the yellow.Sounds a lot like US political ads. "Don't vote for the other guy!"

+1

More like 10% for me though. Too many bills. :o

The only complicated part would be who gets to wear the Yellow, Blue, Red, or Green jerseys. Would the MODs be the only ones allowed to wear the yellow? All I know is I don't want to wear the red one.
I apologize again for the lame Star Trek references.

Mods get blue :thumb: .

Otherwise, I'm going with pink.

Oh wait, that's the weight weenie welcome star...

Is that because I can't ever wear a yellow jersey, or just because I would look like a school bus wearing it?

I would advise not to wear the yellow jersey around the first three weeks in July...It's too weird...

Well, choice one is usually called "corn and blue" around here, and I wouldn't wear anything in those colors, so green for me.

Will there be an option to get the pockets on the front or pockets deleted? I normally have to pay $10 to have an alteration shop move the pockets from back to front for me and sometimes there is still a thread-picking hole or two on the removal side due to the tight machine stitching.

I haven't voted quite yet.

I just realized that I can't wear the yellow jersey in my neighborhood for it'll look like I'm representing for the neighborhood gang. Not kidding. Personally, I wouldn't want to get shot while en route to school or to the lakefront bike path.

I like the green because it's a little more understated, and that's really what FOO is all about :rolleyes: And I like the little orange star.

This is a tough choice...they are both awesome. Artifice...if you need another project...perhaps you could put together navy shorts with a green or yellow leg panel to match the jersey!:eek::p (Runs and ducks for cover:lol:

Seriously though, these came out great. I'm getting one...just got decide green or yellow.

The votes have been surprisingly close. I'm afraid what will happen in the event of a tie.

08-13-08, 01:29 PM
If there are ten people wanting each color, you can order both.

UnsafeAlpine
08-13-08, 01:30 PM
Yeah, as long as all the voters are gonna buy a jersey, we can order both.

jsharr
08-13-08, 01:31 PM
Don't place the order until payment is received.

right, but then we will also have with/without stacey's avatar... which gets too complicated. i think we need to do 1 color/2 versions.

If I recall correctly minimum order on the socks is like 50 pairs. I could be wrong.

From the Champ-Sys website.

To place an order with Champion System you only need to order 10 of any same-style main item (jerseys, jackets, vests, shorts, tights, knickers, skinsuits) to get started. After that, you can order any main item one-at-a-time. Confused? Here are some examples of acceptable orders:

10 short sleeve jerseys, 1 long sleeve jersey, 1 vest.
10 bib shorts, 1 skinsuit, 1 short sleeve jersey, 1 winter jacket.
10 wind jackets, 1 wind vest, 1 bib short, 1 bib knicker.
* Accessories (gloves, caps, warmers etc. have separate minimums. See below for details).

That's right, you can order items ONE AT A TIME as long as you are ordering at least 10 of any same-style item. Finally, your time trial teammate can order one long sleeve skinsuit and your teammate that trains all winter can order one pair of custom fleece bib tights.

Incredible, right? Compare our minimums to other companies. None of our competitors will allow you to order items one at a time!

Accessory minimums:

Gloves - 10 pieces
Shoe Covers - 10 pieces
Arm/Leg/Knee Warmers - 10 pieces per style.
Cycling Caps - 10 pieces if part of a jersey/short order. 25 pieces for cap-only orders.
Socks - 50 pairs

Prices here.. shipping and handling charges for the person who handles the order need to be taken into account as well. Usually the person handling the order adds $10 to the price to cover shipping the items out to the forum members,,, also this usually gets the organizer their jersey for free...fair if you ask me.
