so i have a blue fuji that matches my blue mavic wheels and i'm looking to repaint it... i kind of want to paint it a different color that will go well with the wheels... i was thinking of a silver b/c it looks good together.... found this http://i302.photobucket.com/albums/nn99/ergoman_photo/Litespeed1024.jpg?t=1249237683 those are the exact wheels i have... what other colors do you think would go well with them? but might end up just painting it to match.
The reason i'm repainting it is because when i bought it it had a bunch of stickers on it that i really didnt like... so i took them off, but when doing so it took paint off... plus it had a bunch of paint chips anyway. but yeah, might just go back to the same color

silver, gunmetal, black, blue to match, dark red, teal, yellow, orange, white....any of those would look cool. maybe even add in some other blue touches of you go with a different color.

I painted my Schwinn semi-gloss white. Came out great with the same wheels you have. I would post pics but my parents' computer is a pile-o-crap. Came out really nice looking though. I used white bar tape too.
