what colour deep v would you...
... put on your brand new bright red frame. seriously.. a red frame is hard to complement. scared bright colours would be too gimmicky, think red rims might be over the top.. but love the look, and sense of security, of deep vs...
|
Get puke coloured rims and then puke all over them for extra pukeyness before everyone you ride it around pukes.
But seriously man. Get whatever the hell colour Deep V's you want. Seriously. Or get a regular rim that comes in silver or black and don't bother with this most difficult of questions. |
what color is the text on the frame?
also, black, silver, and you're gonna get a lot of snark for this. me, i restrained myself. but others... head's up. |
yeah i figured i'd get **** but guess what, i care about aesthetics. white lettering.
|
open pros
|
ahh this i had considered. thinking black machined

aesthetics (also spelled esthetics or æsthetics) is a branch of value theory which studies sensory or sensori-emotional values, sometimes called judgments of sentiment or taste.
how does your bike smell? how does that make you feel? btw, silver. |
Get plain silver and polish them. Then you can roll up on that Escalade and shout...I've got 29's biatch!
|
^^^word to full mirrored pimpiness^^^
|
christmas is coming -- green
|
Colored bike parts = trash. Another vote for silver. And although you didn't ask, Open Pros.

I'm embarrassed I even clicked on this thread. I wonder what I thought I'd find? I wonder what answer the OP is looking for? Aren't all the colors available on the Velocity website? Is it supposed to be fun playing "dress up" with somebody else's bike? This could be the most confusing thread I've seen in awhile.
|
^ complement, not compliment.
|
I'd probably do black machined or silver with an edge to black. I'd also prefer Open Pros to deep V.
|
In keeping w/ Christmas, I vote white. Then paint a helical white stripe on the seattube so it looks like a candy cane or a barber pole.

Don't they come uncolored? Otherwise, a lime green is dope. |
I would probably run white V's a red frame with white branding.

Is it a nice frame? Maybe you owe it to yourself to get something with a little style AND some performance value. Deep-v's are more than just passe, they're counter-productive. |
yes.. those things are way too heavy.. if youre pushing 280 or so.. maybe go for it..aside from that they are useless
as for aero.. the MIT pursuit team nerds claim you get more aero out of not wearing gloves then you do from a deep v wheel which means, not much |
aeroheads come in colors, too. get those.
