Yes if you're going rat it has to be crappy mat black. i have and explosif like that. or Naked and rusty, but both are too harsh for your new frame IMHO.
Re:
Ok ok Kyle you win!
It's gone!
I wasn't loving the colour, it just didn't quite do it for me. I couldn't be bothered to go down the re-spray route, the rusty rat idea was 99% never going to happen and I couldn't really imagine it looking good with the parts I have to go on. :facepalm:
So, where has it gone? ...well, a good mate of mine offered me a trade for a mint cotic bfe ...after a bit of gentle persuasion! The great thing is, this beast is gritstone black so all the black/silver bits I have will look nice and clean....it also has the sparkly gold reflective decals so this will pick up nicely with my renthal bars
Secondly I was the original owner of the bfe and he had it off me when I was in desperate need to try a 29er out in the winter of 2012.... The bfe has sat in the back of his parents garage pretty much ever since! He's a bit of a roadie/klunker rider - I expect his mrs will have the dialled!
I regretted selling the bfe when I did so it's nice to have it back... Keep out an eye in the 98 section for a build thread soon - anyone with a red frame facing the same dilemma please feel free to hijack this
