    Cheers

  6. Looking at that photo, I don't think red wheels work with a red bike

  7. I can give it a go, I'm a bit of a photoshop novice (self taught) and tend to find it hard to replace colours with white or black as technically they're not colours (according to PS)

    Chuck me a link to your avatar pic and I'll give it a whirl over the weekend

  8. Damodici/Andy,

    Thanks very much guys. I do like the red wheels now I have seen them on the bike.

    Cheers

    Jim

  10. One of the last mods on my to do list is the trellis and engine lugs in red... does anyone of you know where I can do that (including dismantling/fitting)?
    And roughly how much do you estimate?

  11. Slug,
    I got quote for my last bike to do the frame via P&H with Altamura. It was £1400 !
    Most of that is labour, as there are a number of hours in getting the bike stripped and put back together. Look at the thread posted above about my bike, I listed roughly what is involved in stripping the bike.
    By contrast, the actual cost to paint the frame is £150.

    Hope that helps

  13. I like :D .......the white rim tape is a nice detail, in fact the plain red wheels without it might have been ott.

  14. My word JimVee, that does look pretty special - I wouldn't want to get it dirty!

  18. Looks great Jim.

    I think the rim tape looks good on yours, but wouldn't work with mine.

  19. Cheers John. Think I'm probably done with changing it now

  20. Not for me, I prefer black but if you like them then that's great - each to their own. I'm still wanting to break up the side white band on the tank like the Dolomites Peak paint job.
