What color fenders?

[Tuckervill]

It's T'giving morning and I'm sitting in my kitchen way too early to put the turkey in the oven. Let's just say it's the quiet before the storm, and what am I doing up????

So here's my question: What color fenders should I put on this bike? Silver or black?

I'm leaning towards black. I have a black Brooks B72 that I bought off ebay on the way. That's the original paint job--a champaign color with maroon accents. Brooks has a maroon saddle coming out, but it's way out of my price range, so went with black rather than honey.

Do you think black fenders would overwhelm it? I have a real thing for black bikes. Some of the guys on Classic & Vintage have gorgeous all-black bikes that I just pant over. I haven't decided whether I'll repaint this bike, yet, but I plan on riding it as is next season.

I can't believe I'm even thinking about it today!
