Evening. This arrives this week 531 Blueridge in THM size.

Initially was thinking white powdercoat. Going for an all black retro mod build as that's what's in stock in THM cave.

This would mean I have british 80s 531 MTBs in red white and blue.

But. White? Really? What else works nicely with black parts?

Inspire me as white seems a bit, white.

Thanks THM

Got a mixed bag of black bits inc xt v brakes, modern stem and post xt 8 rapid fire shifters. Grey rims, black skewers, black spoon. Black outers and tyres. Black cage. Black riser bars.

Custard yellow?

Team banana paint scheme, black and yellow and get the decals from nick at h Lloyd's.

Will go well with black parts and will have a nod in the direction of retro even if you plan to use v's
