I seem to have a matte black love theme going on here...
That all-black DHR is one of my favorite bikes ever. I was considering a bunch of the 2002 DHRs for sale so I could be just like it (except about 10 lbs lighter, lol) someday.

I guess I need to throw some bike pics up here...I have 2 all-blacks now. Kinda wish one of them wasn't, frankly, and it wasn't supposed to end up this way, but they are pretty cool.

So was I. I wish I never had to sell anything and could just stuff it in my workshop for possible future use. If I stripped my RFX for it's build and added a 170mm 66 to my old DHR I'd be just a hair under 40 pounds. Fully race-able and yet very agile for freeriding. Ahhh what could have been! :)

OK, here's my BMXtb and my RFX, black as coal...

I wish one of them was a nice blue or something, but I tried to have my Turner powdercoated midnight-blue, and it came out horribly, so I sent it to Olympic and got a straight semimatte black on it just to be safe.

I didn't like the bronze color on my old BMXtb, either, so again I played it safe...black ano is easy and predictable. Now I feel like I'm posing as 'hardcore' when I ride it, which is pretty horrible considering my limited skills.

Hey, wait, these bikes kinda match my avatar...hmmmm...

last years DJ rig. since replaced with a grey Orange hitman (<3). i love the look of that azonic though. i eventually took the head badge off, and replaced the pedals with cully's. it was stealth.

If I had a digital camera I could show you BLACK Azonic DS1 with black DJIII, the only stuff not black are white Sram brake levers. Also, my BLACK Bullit-entirely black with stickers removed, the only exception are the gray lowers on the super T

My Bullit. It has a black bar on it now, so it is a bit more stealthy.



And my PX Zebdi. It has a black stem on it now, but still needs a black bar on it!
