Current plan is an orange stem cap. An orange headset would've been cool but I'm not budgeting $150 for a headset on this build. Orange tape might be cool though.

Both of my wheel sets have silver hubs which makes black cranks look weird IMO. I'm leaning toward silver brakes as well. I was playing around with the camo tape. It'll probably be black. :thumb:
