Arctic blue - with a hint of darkness!



Following on from spraying my badges graphite grey, I had my alloys refurbished and resprayed to match :)
Also today I removed the back seats as they are pointless.

A quick shot to show the badges in graphite grey:

And a bit more room to transport my mountain bike too!:

And a few very quick shots by the Malvern hills, this is by no means a 'photoshoot', just some quick shots.

The alloys do look fairly light in those snaps, but they are quite dark, which was exactly what I was after :)

Oh, btw, the first person to say it would look better lowered gets shot!! I am aware of this, but there's not a lot I can do about it at the mo! :(

This gives you the idea of how dark they actually are: (this is lowered in photoshop too ;))

I did think of doing that but I thought it would look a bit odd and out of place. Especially as all my other diamonds are grey too.

looking good dan, as quade says will look hella funky hot when its dropped a bit

what type of biking do you do? ive got my bike in the garage an havent really used it for a year or so, might be worth getting it out again
 
Just general mountain biking - usually cross country stuff just to try and keep fit lol But I go to the Forest of Dean occasional too for a bit of downhill action too :)
Ive got a Scott Ransom 30, so even with the wheels off its pretty bulky! What do you ride?

Nice little mods.. Did you notice alot of difference with the seats removed?

Better pics from the front?
 
I might have some other pics from the front. I'll post em up tomorrow.

A difference...? Hell yeh! Removing the seats must have taken 1 second of the 0-60 time!! :p

But seriously..! There isnt much difference no, it's a bit noisier and you can hear the rear brakes being applied, but other than that, not much no :)
