What colored deep v?

which colored deep v wheelset would go best with this frame? i was leaning towards either BLUE or GOLD, but if you have a better suggestion, please let me know.

ps.i'm getting rid of the red bullhorns and the red-walled tires, so please don't base your opinion on either of those two items. just the frame. thanks =)

no brakes, no foot retention.

i think you have more pressing things to address before your wheels.

PS im not usually a d!ck, but srsly, your asking for it.

Out of the two colors you are looking at, I think blue would look nice. Def. get foot retention or a brake before spending the money on wheels though.

I got celeste Deep Vs and they look great. You could consider those. With some celeste grip tape, your bike would look pretty good.

Definitely get foot retention/brakes first, though.

white with gold always looks good. search some images of bikes with the colors you want, something might convince you then you wont have to ask for others opinions.

thank you for your concern, but i'm no idiot. i was going to take care of all of that: clips, straps, wheels (no brakes), at the same time. all i needed was an opinion on wheel color. thank you. (i'm not trying to be a dick at all)
