Wheels (Something deeper) but probably silver? My other idea comes from my love of mid 90s MTB fashion and Ringle components to be exact, think purple track bars/purple wheels?
Not sure if the purple would clash and just be absolutely hideous?
I plan on commuting but want to get out to our local track here in NJ at least a few times this year.
Thanks for your Ben Kinobi insight!!
Is that a purple Kilo?
Brown saddle & tape gets my vote but I'd steer clear of track drops for commuting or riding on the street. Bars are easy to swap out if you end up on the track.
Also, keep it classy.
