I wasn't sure if this would go in the frame-building or in a section re: the type of bike I'm building up, but here goes...

I am building up a Soma Wolverine (pumpkin Orange). I think that the Green Chris King Headset looks pretty solid on the frame, but I want to put other matching green accents on the bike. So far, I've thought bottle cages (anyone know any green metal ones?), seatpost clamp or seatpost, and possibly some green cable housing, and green cable stops.

Any other ideas of what could look cool or any products (of the above ideas) that match King's Green?

I have googled a ton and most folks have tried to match Chris King's pewter, blue, and mango, but not much for the green.

*sadly, wish the special sour apple was still available, that would be way easier to match (and was pretty awesome looking on its own)

Buy Chris KingŪ Sour Apple Green Headsets now from AVT.Bike

Seems they still have them in stock.

I haven't looked recently but 20 years ago BikeNashbar in Ohio carried a pretty wide range of colors in cheap bottle cages

that thing looks damn good, it would match up well with a lot of the various yellow accessories I've seen over the last few years

Thanks everyone

The Chris King headset on AVT is not the right one for the build, but thanks for looking! The sour apple hubs on there are so slick.

Thanks for the heads up about Nashbar, good call. I've also had some luck on e-bay, but I am always afraid to bid and have it be the wrong green.

Cables, grips and check out spank rims for the wicked green. Also some flat pedals too.

Salsa makes green skewers and seat post clamps. I got some red ones that match my red CK headset pretty well. Check out jensonusa.com

I've never managed to match my CK components. The colors are all a little off and I'm a little OCD so I don't even try to color match anymore.

I have Blue CK HS and BB on my Surly Pacer and tried a blue Salsa seat clamp and the blue wasn't right. So I just run a black salsa clamp

I never thought about doing green skewers - great idea!
@simplybao - I tend to agree with you about he matching, I usually go kind of old school italian and just get everything chrome/silver but as companies go full force into gray/black for all components, its even hard to go the chrome route. I bet the blue CK stuff looks awesome on a surly pacer! Some day I'd like to build up some CK hubs.

Matching anodized colors is a lot more difficult than matching paint or powder coat in my experience. Even anodized parts with the same color from the same company can be a poor match.
Must be a difficult process to manage.
