Seeing as we're having such a wonderfull summer :blush: , I think I need to get some mudgaurds for my new bike sooner rather than later.

My bike is a Bianchi 1885 in Celeste (green) and white.

I've swapped the saddle for a black one, and the bar tape is already getting grubby, so will probably be changed soon for some in black.

I've seen that the SKS race blades come in white :biggrin:

Do you think this would be a bit too much, and I should play safe and go with the black ones?

I'm liking the consensus on the white guards. It may have to wait until the end of the month, but white it shall be.

White.

Pity they've not got transparent pinstripes like the full-length SKS 'guards. If they did, you could spray 'em Bianchi Celeste on the inside so it showed through on the outside. That would be pimpin'... :evil:

While you're at it Luke - get the rest of the bike sprayed white - should look nice...a bit like a Specialized Allez.

:biggrin:

I was thinking I could get celeste coloured LEDs and fit them underneath the mudgaurds, bathing the wheels and road in colour :smile:

White, but you will have to clean them after each use =

:sad: I already do that to the rest of the bike
