Red or Black Toshi doubles for Maroon steamroller w/ honey brooks?

Here are two pics for reference--not my bike, but bike will be maroon w/ a honey brooks leather saddle. Red seems neat, but it might be too bright and take away from the antiquated look of brown/maroon. At the same time, black is more boring, and who doesn't want to show off their toshi doubles..

Maybe the guy is color blind. Maybe he has zero color sense. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Red will clash, black won't.

no ****. I opened this thread just to confirm it was what i thought it was.

it's gone too far

EDIT: I misspelled something in my post and to get back into the thread to edit it took about 3 minutes. Are the forums moving terribly slow for anyone else?
