Ok, I have always picked out my own color schemes each year for my builds and kits. I think this year I will give the public a chance to pick. Here is the low-down. I will be going with a Yellow Transition TR-450 frame, big thanks to the guys at http://www.transitionbikes.com/Home.cfm. I am letting you guys pick the colors for the Bars, Stem, Seat Post, Seat Clamp, Crank Bolts, and Wheels from www.loadedusa.com. Please feel free to be creative with this build. This bike will be built up in March and a full write up with pictures and video will follow with the build.

Important: I don't waste anyone's time on here, so I am asking you not to waste my time. I look forward to see what you guys come up with.

See colors available below:

You can find the rest of the parts at:
www.loadedusa.com

Thanks to all and can't wait to see you all out there this year,

Cecil:thumb:

Black looks great w/ that yellow frame. Black everything with the yellow frame is what I would do.
Like this, but in reverse:

Please understand Loaded has a lot of color options. All Black parts are a little played out. I do greatly appreciate your thoughts, but going all Black is to easy and to normal. The Fork will also get Custom Color Decals to match as well.

Keep it coming and thanks,

Cecil

I think the dark grey color would be sweet and offset the bright yellow nicely.I wouldn't do more than 2 colors with that frame color. Have fun!

This is literally, in all seriousness, the gayest fvcking thread ever started on this website.


You better be on mushrooms right now and just fascinated with shiny objects.


That said, a simple bumblebee colorway evident in the previous examples not only shows pizazz but that you may be cute, but you also have bite!

A natural anodized silver with red and blue highlights is not only tasteful, but shows an appreciation for heritage and knowing and appreciating your roots!

Mix greens with bright warm colors like red, orange and yellow to show that in the natural environment, there's flair to be found........like a TIGER!!! GRRRRR!!!


Seriously..........the gayest thread this site has ever seen.

I think the only viable option at this point is to just use ALL the colors and of course custom paint...........

why not just use all of them and go "rainbow" it seems u want to promote the products and color choices, rainbow will do that the best imo, although it may surpass the uglyness of the "tatoo" demo 7

You gonna ask us which purse and shoes match your dress best next? ;)

IN all seriousness, its fun playing with colours and pimping your bike out and all, but man, just do it yourself. It ain't hard. Asking...well Kidwoo is right.


Also, loaded precision? Really? Did they get the name cause they were loaded when they picked the parts out of the taiwan catalogue? ;)

Also no matter how cool the bike ends up, it won't beat this.

chrome bars, red stem and seatpost, silver/chrome rims with red hubs. Or switch blue for the red.

There is seriously something wrong with a company that offers all those ano colors but no purple.

That said, with that yellow frame, go rasta. I mean, err, gay rasta.

I want to say thanks to all of you that have given me your color ideas, even the "Gay ones". Made me laugh!! I wasn't looking to create another "What should I Do" thread like all the rest on here. My intent was to give you all a chance to be part of the selection and build. Like I said, I will be doing a write up on the build like some I have done in the past that most of you loved. I miss doing these kind of write ups and will be doing more this year.

Like I said, rasta. Or all blue, I think that's a great idea, especially if you can snag some blue 721s from a giant or a pair of p35s in blue.

Why not use Transition parts then for the build? I have a ton more respect for transition (and interest in hearing about them) than a company like Loaded Reseller...I mean precision.

Yep. But at least they sell them for a hell of a lot cheaper.

Putting your logo on something from a catalogue and selling it at a good price: awesome. Helpful even.

Putting your logo on something from a catalogue and selling it at a crappy marked up price: super weak.
