Title: Black or white (or chrome it seems)?
Post by: dannywhiteley on June 25, 2008, 10:44 AM
No not the Michael Jackson hit single, but my Pro-lite (see below).

Thinking now to keep this and get it powder coated.  Now big question is do I do it black or white?  I love white bikes, but I already have a white streetbeat and a white Rebel, and the Robinson I owned was also white. 

You dont see as many black OS bikes, and think with the decals applied and the matching pads would look proper 8). 

Built up with chrome parts and the odd splash of baby blue maybe?  Which colour would work better?

I think I would leave it Chrome as it's original and build it up with decent used parts it would make a nice survivor.

all the way on this one with moley bodamus & gashead... don't powder it unless you really have to ie chrome totally t@ssed... looks like it might come back with a bit of elbow gip and some autosol for the survivor build... but if your thinking show, then black is the way i would go :daumenhoch:


ade :crazy2:

It does look slightly better in the pics than in reality.  I'll go at it again before deciding, but I like the idea of a black build for a change.

if you do go for black , matt black, don,t go for powder coating it,s to thick! argos cycles in bristol would do it by spraying it. if you have a frame nos you will still be able to read it :) they have done a few of my bikes top job 8)
