    Ok guys after receiving the wheel bearings from MrB, I thought I'd get some of your opinions on the choice of wheel colour for the SP1, before sending off to the powder coaters.

    My first choice would be gold to go with the HRC heritage, and seeing a few with this colour of wheel I know it would go well.

    Here are a few pics of the bike for any photoshoppers out there willing to temp me with something else.

    Pretty much what I was thinking also. I do like the look of stefan bradl's wheels this year. A nice deep titanium colour, just not so sure how they would look on the bike.

    I like the gold, but I would probably try to go back to the original colour & spec.
