Gonna change my ripper. Not sure what colour to do. I like the plain colours, blues browns white etc.
What's the nicest ripper you've seen. (pics appreciated)
It's black now with chrome lg's and blue decals.

I always liked Dordy's black and gold, I do love baby blu ones though. :smitten:

me personaly have always had a soft spot for craigcurbrows baby blue one :smitten:

Every colour combo looks ace on a Ripper and pretty much all colour combo's have been done over and over. Tan and Blue decals is a cool combo, burnished always looks great with any colour parts combo... I have no idea what my fave colour combo is tbh ???
-
They're all bloody nice John :-\
Ideally you need about 5 or 6 Rippers or re paint it every 6 months on a rota :LolLolLolLol:
Black and gold
Baby blue and navy
White and black
Ball burnished and blue or black
Candy red and gold or silver
Dark blue and baby
Tan and brown
Orange and chrome
and on and on :smitten:
-
Or just mulitples of each colour with all the decals colour options ::)
-

-
Tan n brown with camo pads,black,silver and chrome parts :daumenhoch:

^^^ good call there , Noice, i'd like to see one in dayglo green or orange or maybe pink :shocked:

For me, it has to be black, white, or candy red. And gold parts where possible.
-

Black and Gold with Camo Pads looks awesome.
-
I'm liking the white with blue forks. That is sweet
I like the red on the frame but it never seems to translate to a nice build.
That white baby blue combo reminds me of a factory rider build. Memory is failing so I have no idea who it was.

Mine was a copy if mike buffs ripper...

i wouldnt be able to decide,
Either Burnished with Blue Ano parts, or Black with Gold Ano parts, maybe candy red or blue with gold ano also
although when i had a Mike Buff Replica White, Baby Blue L Gears, with all red and Black Tuffs, that looked cool also.
You dont see many Ano with Red parts about, maybe that would work with a little black on the forks or bars.
they look cool whatever.

Black and gold for me. Dordy's one was awesome, loved it so much it inspired me to do mine black and gold.

Black and gold certainly is a beautiful colour way, i have a couple although neither are Rippers. Isn't the frame colour already black though so perhaps that colour way isn't much of a departure from what JT already has?
Cream with baby blue forks would make a lovely build. :smitten:
If you're stuck for colours there is an online tool to help you pick complimentary, compound, analogous etc versions of your base colour or in this case the frame colour.
I've used this or versions of it (originally paper based) throughout my career and it really has been a life saver
https://kuler.adobe.com
Once you're in you can browse themes, which are colour sets saved by users, or more likely create your own...
To start your own theme click "Create" on the left hand side. Next on the colour picker drag the central circle to a colour which you think would make a nice frame colour. Now start clicking through the rules to the left and see what comes up! At the very least its fun and it should help stimulate some ideas if not for your build but for the downstairs toilet!

:LolLolLolLol: how you know i'm after building a bog in the cellar. just need to get a saniflo(w) thing and do a bit of plumbing.
i'm thinking blue/brown brown/brown white/either blue/brown i also thought about blue yellow like the tuff burner colour scheme. got most of the parts and a tasty plate to go on them colours. it's going to be my rider, so it needs to look tidy.

Love the old school white (kind of cream) with baby blue LG's :smitten:

Still gonna need one, shit don't flush uphill :D
I thought about a recreation of the worst toilet in Scotland from trainspotting.
I'm gonna break out what parts I've got left and go from there. Don't want to buy too many new parts when I've got loads of spares knocking around.
