Title: Looking for some inspiration......
Post by: ammacopij72 on January 13, 2018, 01:22 PM
Right lads, Looking for a bit of inspiration for a possible new freestyle project. Thinking it will have white kenda k55s on chrome rims with white furniture but a bit stumped on the best colour for the frame/forks/bars... Was thinking maybe black or really dark blue with chrome decals but struggling to picture how that would look....

Anyone got any piccies they can post up with a similar colour combo?

Cheers in advance  :daumenhoch:

Neil

The FB DP page might not be a bad place to start, them lads are always dicking about with colours. Kappy's Me & My Bikes may be a good place to look too.

Tbh, what you've described sounds a bit random and something I can't remember seeing before, which isn't a bad thing, it's a sign of originality,

What f/f are you using?

Cheers fella, Thinking about buying the street devil that chubby's had for sale for a while, looks to be nice rare thing and reckon I could do a proper custom job on it....
