So I'm building a fixie/ss up from an old centurion frame my uncle gave me. I've almsot fully stripped the bike of the paint and so now I'm not sure what color to paint it.
I'm going to be riding on blue deep v's with black spokes and black hubs with a gold sugino rd messenger crankset i think. Both are one there way.

So what color should i paint the frame??
I was thinking black or white.

Any suggestions or ideas please.

I planned on painting it myself

thanks....and I'm a newbie too

You'll regret this later.

White.

what will i regret

you will regret the fact that you converted a centurion into a 'fixie'
suggestions for paint colour.... purple with white sparkles powder coated and have a centurion decal put back on the top coat then give 3 layers of clear liquid coating to bring it back to life... then put on 6 speeds onto that bike and some old shimano arabesque 600ex /dura ace ex or some old campy c record groupo...

here's a suggestion...build something you want and not what other people tell you.

i think i'll do white
then ad a black C on the front and might ad centurion on the side depends how i feel

I think White would look great with those other components

I also thought about a red....not to bright but not to deep
i think that could look cool
then throw an ironman sticker back on it....cause the red and gold..i thought it would be kinda cool

It will look like ass if you do it yourself--- assuming you are rattlecanning it. Best of luck. You should have kept the original paint--- as everyone told you in your previous thread-- assuming you were the one.

But really what was the Frame make & model?

i wasnt the one in the previous thread

i think its a late 80's centurion ironman expert

This is the most ironically hilarious post in this thread.

Major lulz.

thanks for the help guys

maybe ill post pictures when im done, but im afraid i might get flamed

don't be afraid to post... we are mostly being jerks... well I know my comments were a lil jerkish....

I'm sure all of us would love to see your bike that you put your efforts into

Also if you are painting it still go MATTE WHITE... never seen that for a bike... always matte black or black or gloss white...matte white would look like chal and that polar bear pic did say something

why pick one or the other? go 2-tone!

that does look pretty sick...but i cant do that

if anything besides a solid matte white ill do matte white with a black fork

UPDATE: i'm getting ano purple deep v's instead

SO...white frame and black fork

red to make it stand out and give it the name optimus primal-cycle

Haha
well i actually got purple deep v's instead of blue

so i might do black frame wit ha white fork or all white

Go pink

haha pink would be insane

but im going with flat white
