Help Me Pick a Color
Just about to pull the trigger on a new Giant XTC HT frame and I'm looking for input on frame color. I have a new all black Manitou R7 Super fork and black Element disc wheels with Kenda 2.20 tires. Both wheels and tires have white lettering. I like all three colors but can't decide. Help me out.
Silver with Red
Yellow with White
Silver
Here's my wheels, tires and fork

that silver and red.....it will look cool if everything else is black (fork, wheels, etc.) and some red details like the following....
Disc break with candy red calipers (https://www.magurausa.com/mountainbik...s/marta_sl.php) and Venti Rotors

candy red....hope stem.....and this headset (https://www.chrisking.com/headsets/hds_nts.html)

I talked myself out of the yellow but keep coming back to it. I agree with you Flak, seems like half the new bikes sold in 2006 were silver.

I think it's interesting that almost all the people that picked silver are 18 or under.

yellow and white with black accent parts are hot. I wish my frame had some yellow, but i just had to settle for the yellow in the wheels with the white frame. Silve is kinda of bland now because so many bikes have had it in the past few years. Get a color that really stands out (for me that is yellow and white), you won't regret it. Red is majorly overdone IMO.

everything goes with silver so you won't look like a dork wearing blue or something on it..
My current bike is matte silver .. next one I want a primer grey or plain white.. I'm not a fan of the 2 tone bikes.
edit .. i really want a hunter green bike I don't think I've seen one of those
