Travelling with my bike such a long way i inevitably want to put a lot of effort into personalizing it to represent both my style and my goal (chasing the sun). I would like your thoughts on my proposed colour schemes: -
Bike
- A black surly, probably matte black. If this isn't possible it will be either white or dark green
Panniers
Back = Black
Handlebar = silver
Front = white
This is to give the dark --> light look ... i.e moving towards the sun
Spokes
All black w/ design (not sure yet because i want to see how it spins.. but probably including a bit of red or white)
Silver with a design (red)
Wheel rim.
Either silver (with black spokes)
or all black.
i am leaning towards silver rim, with all black spokes with red design (to be decided). It'll be interesting to see what it looks like when the bike is moving = )
I'll let you know once i eventually get the bike and paint it.
Til then... have a good one!

I think my bike wont be as thought out as yours, but it will be as functional. I will probably decorate my bike as I go with lots of dings and bumps so I'm not sure how I feel about making it pristine before I would inevitably ruin it.
Your bike sounds really pretty though!
