I'm looking at getting this frame resprayed, but tbh I need help in choosing a colour, I have no clear idea in mind apart from Matte black or a cherry red. This is the frame and it'll be having black Xfusion velvet forks and pretty much be keeping everything else the same colourwise (Head doctor, grips are now with red clamps etc), although it'll be getting converted to a Hollowtech II based 1x10 too. Any suggestions? or thoughts to help me decide?  Was thinking of either of these colours?   |

Do you want stealth or in yo face ?
Matt black or commencal yellow.

Do it red. Matt black is vile and causes premature seatpin failure.
PS Hope your poorly tummy is OK today. It must have been that Boost bar what done it.

Not sure I could live with in yo face, not really feeling the dayglo colours. Andy thanks for the free boost bar  I do like stealth black but obviously I have that on the Chief so maybe overkill with both bikes, maybe a glossy black? Really struggling to decide though the red of the Stanton is probably just ahead atm. |

I just thought I'd ask a genuine question on a forum who's members opinions I value. I just didn't expect such a blunt assessment. Jay and Adam pretty much told me the same so perhaps I should have listened. I'll think again.

I'm sorry if I offended you big lad. You do as you please with your frame. I really have no opinion on the matter.

Do it orange and black like the bike you've been talking about getting for the past 6 months??? This is helpful advice and in no way an insult. |

It has to be said, the old boy has determination.. If you do insist on 'doing it up', it has to be the brightest possible red or the darkest possible matt black! Anything else will just show up how shit the whole thing is!  |

Just buy a BFE frame if you have a lot of bits ready to swap it's a no brainer

Do it rainbow coloured!!! Gay pride and all that!!! Ride with Pride!!! Little leather seat to match your chaps and leather cap.
Do you class as a bear??? That'd put your performance at llandegla into perspective. Does a bear shit in the woods? Yes!!
