Oh I see..I got "green" out of "gr". Well now I know to ask for "Brian Campbell's grilver" if I go this route. I tell ya, brother, I hadn't intended to spend that much on another frame this year, but my 50th birthday is in May. Hmmm.. On Wednesday, March 28, 2012 8:49:33 AM UTC-7, Brian Campbe

Joe thanks! "Grilver" is Riv's description of the color. It is a combination of grey & silver. They had a blog post (last year some time?) about this color being tested on a Sam IIRC. I had asked for green and got this by accident. There is no gree in it that I am aware of. I too am no big fan

Riv is so on a roll with colors in the last couple of years. The Roadeo/Hunqa grey with red or orange, the last two Hillborne's, Simpleone, and now this accidental choice. I find very often that when I relax my grip a bit that serendipity will trickle in. And that has made all the difference.

Thanks! Glad it finally worked. As for the Imperial saddle, I like it quite a bit. It replaced a well worn B-17 Champion Special and I have not missed it. Funny thing about the color is it was a mistake. When I ordered the frame, Iasked that it be painted green. It came back grilver. Keven was
