    One of my local lads has his Gixer wheels done in blue carbon,but wonder how the finnish would hold out.If i done it to match the rest of the stuff i got carbon dipped it might look a bit too much!!

    Carbon paint is that like tartan or does it really exist?

    I can see the darker gold working there or how about two tone silver spokes on red rims.

    Blue wheels with the red tape suits the bike. In my opinion the other colours look out of place on the bikes colour scheme.;)
