Need help accessorizing my new bike please

I say go with the pink because white is the prodominate color on the frame.

From the picture, the bike looks white (and for some reason, I thought it looked white as well when I first saw it) but then when I saw it again last weekend, it noticed it was a light silver/grey...I think Trek calls it silver blossom.

Hi, have you considered silver (aka white carbon) accessories at all? I think it would look awesome!
Congratulations on the new bike, by the way!!!

She's pretty, arielmoon.

Thanks! Your pink/ white accessories are loverly!

Is it bad that I want to get water bottles that coordinate??? I have some non leaching plastic ones that are red and I think they clash. The clear ones that LBS gave me are clear but not made of the right stuff and the water tastes like plastic- ack.

I need to find me some new water bottles!

Nope, Looks very good to me!!! But I guess I should plead guilty to being a "bike fashion diva"... everything on my bikes has to match!

Arielmoon - I am loving the pink bottle holders...the guys yesterday pulled them out for me as well, all excited about finding something pink for my bike.

TxDoc - I will look into silver! Although it seems harder to find what I want than the other colors...I guess I am picky about the shade of silver. Too shiny = not my style

Keep the pictures coming! I love drooling over your guys' bikes!

Hi, here is what I found looking for white carbon (sort of silver)
-stem, handlebar, spacers, and waterbottle cages from Token, www.tokenproductsusa.com
-seatpost from Selcof www.selcof.it
I can take some pictures for you if you'd like to see these components.
And now I am debating about getting this saddle... http://www.cbike.com/ProductImages/s...l_s_carbon.jpg
I love my current saddles so I don;t really need it... but this one is so cute - and 122g!!!

OWWWWWWWW!

(Pretty, but for me, would be the ultimate torture device -- no cutout, way too narrow, and no padding whatsoever, no wonder it's light!)

Not bad at ALL! I highly recommend Polar bottles, by the way. They really help keep your drinks cool. I fill mine up all the way with ice, dump my Cytomax Lite powder in, fill it with water and shake. They aren't cheap, but well worth it. They make several colors, one of which is pink. I really do need to buy another pink one, because I only have one and that's just not right. On long rides I always have one pink and one white. It coordinates, but two pink would be so much better!

I think I need to look into getting some cooler looking pink bottle cages. Mine are pink, but sort of "old fashioned" looking to me. All this talk of accessorizing has got me thinking about that again!

I use these and they work quite nicely. However, I can't seem to find the pink ones in the 20 oz size! The 24 oz bottles are just too big...and I need to replace my blue one because it got moldy and I can't seem to get rid of it
