pictures of the bike - https://www.bikepics.com/members/froggygirl128/91zeal/
The bars ive fitted are blue and am wanting to put a few anodised bits around my bike but cant decided on the colour. Would the bars be the same colour blue as www.tastynuts.com stock.

Dont bother posting if your just going to say you dont think i should do it, my mines made up even if i just get silver or black. I dont want the bike to look tarty i just want it to look tidy.

Not a fan of it all really but go with your heart the one you know you will like. Unlike the colour we might choose *if* you put it on you might think wth this sucks. you most probaly already have your mind made up .... what colour would you like?

dark blue would look brilliant with that colour bike, either that or stick with silver.

When you do this please do yourself a big favour and get some coppa slip (copper slip) to put on each thread as you replace the bolts, nuts, etc. Anodised bits are a bugger if they go furry and seize. HTH Thumbs Up

Hi

Firstly I am not a fan of anodised stuff in blue / red.

However, I think the blue would be close enough to the colour of the bike to just annoy you with how different a blue it is.

If I was going for it I would go for black (sometimes not easy to find) or silver. But almost everywhere I would be more tempted with stainless steel bolts.

All the best

Keith

Im going for the polished stainless steel look, polishing all the bits myself, be careful how much anodised bit you put on cos it can look cheesey, on blue I would go the polished look, looks classy and says alot..

Cheers
