    So do I, on the HRC's. I can even understand orange on the Repsol, but on mine I think it would make too much of a statement of the wheels.


    And they're a bugger to keep clean.

    Go for the white. i dont think they are hard to keep clean. just buy a good water based cleaner and give the wheels a good wipe once a week and all will be ok

    Keep them as they are, the rim tape sets it off nicely
    Oh and hello, I'm quite new also but they are a good bunch on here

    White looks great, if you are a OCD cleaner like me you will be fine I find them easier to keep clean than the gold I had on my HRC because you can see the dirt more easily :)

    Black or white the bike looks great maybe black with white rim stickers best of both and cheaper to do.

    Talking of cleaning wheels, what do you guys use?
    I find WD40 the best and easiest.

    Looks great to me widgy, gold on yours would look wrong IMO, these look just right, a little bit different, they stand out but fit in with the rest of the bike.
