Title: Help for my Torker colour scheme need to see blue black and gold builds
Post by: Threaders on December 29, 2011, 03:23 PM: Hi Guys,
Hope everyone had a nice christmas and didnt miss rad being down for the whole time ;) I have this build now to work on and need peoples help with the colour scheme.
I am thinking blue, black and gold and this is a pic of my frame and forks

Torker 280 air.
I am thinking gold for all the anno'd bits ie calipers, stem, levers, chainring ect. Black for the grips, spider, ,mags and tyres and seat and blue for the frame forks and bars.
I would love to see other peoples builds using this sort of colour scheme and I am thinking along the lines of a blue pk ripper type thing.
Only trouble is the decals. Now del is out of action, is there anyone else who can do custom decals??
If not, I can get hold of a yellow set or a dark blue set, so need your advice guys.
Many thanks :daumenhoch: Jonathan :)
