matte white would be good too but for mine I like the black because I'm runnin the bright yellow dee-max rims but I really like the idea of a competition orange frame that's pretty bad ass
do it with a candy apple green front traingle and gloss black swingarm. if you wanna be really cool, get matte green flames near the head tube. the matte flames would be completely different from any other flame job on a bike, cuz most people put gloss flames. to get an idea of what that would look like, make a v 10 have that paint job on the santa cruz website, minus the flames. o ya, you gotta use dupont imron instead of powdercoat.
I think the rasta colour scheme would make it look like the VW golfs with every panel a different colour....super ugly. I like the General Lee idea, but some people may get all up-in-arms if you paint the confederate flag on your bike.
I just tore down my '02 Super8 to have it repowder coated. I was leaning towards black, matte or gloss I don't know. With some sort of lime green graphics. Wonder if I could get Darknut to duplicate the orig. graphics in lime green w/some lime green graphics forthe fork guards on my shiver .
