New Bike Fitting

[jeannierides]

Yeah, I love the green! Knot, your Waterford is georgeous! How did you decide on a color for yours? I have the Waterford colors to choose from too!
Trek, some things you just *know*! I can't wait to see a picture of yours as well! I love vintage bikes.

The paint book is on it's way from Gunnar... should be here today or tomorrow.

I really like the red with cream or orange with cream. In case Knot doesn't see this, she bought her bike used, didn't exactly choose the color. Or she did, when she saw the bike.

Jeannie - what about green with orange and yellow flames? That way, when you go whizzing by the rest of us, we'll know it's you!

Lovely Waterford, Knotted! These fine old steel classics really have character, don't they? I like pink and green together, too, even have a bike with those colors. The 1990 Merckx CE I got off eBay has a Team Weinmann paint job - dark purple and shocking pink with pearl white panels and lime green accents (hence I call her Barbie's Playbike). Fabulous bike. I should post pix after DH gets around to redoing her - currently she's stem- and bar-less.

Yeah, I bought Flossie from Limewave here on TE. She is such a gorgeous color of deep gold, I can't imagine a color I'd rather have. I contacted Waterford about getting some touch-up paint for her, and they said they don't have that color of gold any more. (They recommended Testor's model paints.)

The Waterford paint is just lovely and rich, so I'm sure whatever color you choose will be beautiful!

Yeah, I won't be whizzing by anyone!
I'd considered at first some sort of fade, but have re-considered. I loved my Colnago, with all the pretty colors and fades, but I really think I just want the classic look this time. I loved my Wineberry over gold Roadie, so I want to do something similar, just a different color.
