Celery green with clear shellac is a lovely color, and even when it fades it has a nice look. I think it would look fantastic in a harlequin wrap with dark green, and would really jazz up your bike (which is already to die for, IMO). Here's the celery alone, with 2-3 coats of clear newly applied: http://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/4411485979/in/set-72157623567913352 Gets lighter and more "olive-y" over time -- here it is after 2 years out and about in sun, rain and weather: http://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/7439892792/sizes/h/in/set-72157623567913352/ But I think it would still look great with the dark green in harlequin. Of course, yellow and green might look great with your yellow frame, as here (with a green B-17!): http://www.flickr.com/photos/37542512@N04/7439892792/sizes/h/in/set-72157623567913352/ From: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com [mailto:rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of jinxed Sent: Monday, February 04, 2013 7:42 PM To: rbw-owners-bunch@googlegroups.com Subject: [RBW] Thinking of changing up the All Rounder - or spring fever??
Over the last 5-6 months I have spent the majority of miles on the cross bike. Did some racing, but mainly a bunch of mixed path/singletrack riding. I have enjoyed it so much, and surprisingly become very comfortable with drop bars off road. That said, I am thinking of switching up the All Rounder for the upcoming spring-summer season. I've been riding it with my go to mustache bar setup, and some 40mm marathonesque Bontrager tires. Essentially X01 in nature. I'm thinking about throwing back on the fatty knobs and switching to something like a woodchipper drop bar with some new style canecreek levers. Sort of a monstercross I guess? I keep wanting to add some (additional) color to the bike with the bar wrap, but the yellow of the frame is an extremely STRONG hue to get along with. I've tried black, white, and natural cork, but meh. I was considering trying to find one of those green brooks and matching the bars. Maybe a dk.green / celery green harlequin would be cool?? Hit me up on your woodchipper thoughts and aesthetic preponderances! Here's the bike with the fattys on it.<http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7267/6860650144_3fd1cbb6d8_c.jpg> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
