I can't find the picture now... but maybe you've seen it.
It was a Pista Concept powder coated white and said "concept" on the downtube. Powder coated white disc wheel in front and white tires.

Kinda off topic, but anyone know where I can find some green tires? Green/black stripe is fine.

thanks for the thread. i am in search of some replacements for my white rubinos, but can't find any at a decent price (got mine on closeout last year). one word of warning: they will stay white long enough for your fgg/velospace/etc photoshoot, after that you might as well have something in light grey.

i just put a white rubino pro on in the rear and it seems to be as sturdy and tuff as any of their other colors.

It will get dirty, but it will still be white -- or off white. Which is fine. My bar tape was white at one point also =P

Apparently there's a thing with Portland bike shops and not stocking the white Rubinos... Every other available color but white at everywhere I see them stocked. Ahh **** it, I'll just get some Gatorskins and go back to 25's.

I wanted orange tires once. Krylon spray paint worked fine and the tires lasted another year before the tread wore through. So get white paint.
