I'm a big fan of brown tape. I almost went brown for my new silver Eroica, but I went with Newbaum's maroon instead; though brown goes with almost anything, I may put some black Bluemels on this bike, and the maroon will look better with the silver/black combo. Also picked up some new VO gum hoods. But alas, I am not as diligent, and it all is still in the shipping boxes! What's your source for the dark brown housing?
