Brushed silver. Or combos of black/silver/white. Ice blue. I don't know why, but I hate yellow on a bike. Don't like red either unless it's with mostly white.

I love the color of my Trek 6700. Flat black with silver lettering. Yummy!
I also liked the polised aluminum on my old cannondale.

Piano black! My Mantra is exactly that color and so is my Attitude. The Mantra is shiny and new, rode it about a half dozen times, the Attitude is.....not shiny and not new...rode it everywhere, snapped cables and chains and tacoed rims, etc.
when I'm no longer wiping out, I'll start riding the Mantra....man, it's been a few years since I've been on that baby.

I like my blue carbon frame Cannondale with yellow lettering. The carbon weave gives it a three dimensional look that's cool. My Answer carbon bars look cool too.

Just about any Klein finish. Their paint jobs are the best.

I just saw an awesome paint job on this Scott bike I think it was, it was a polished aluminum frame with black and red flames. If there was a drooling smilie then I would use that but there isn't one...
