I'm not sure they did any other than a white or chrome finish mate. Someone will correct me if I'm wrong. :daumenhoch:

Wasn't there a rider that had a yellow one BITD and one of the Dirt Bros had a Green one I think?

I stupidly had one sprayed black and it looked horrid! Big time error.

White is the best colour in my opinion! Build it up and change the colour of the components to make the difference. Just my 2 cents.

I am always into Yellow  :shocked: :shocked: .. but  a yellow TA is no option i suppose , also i want to keep it original..

I like your black one also..   :smitten:

so maybe it better to keep it white then..   :daumenhoch:

But the collor combo's are all the same white/blue/red...

Whats different then  :-\

Shite photo I know but I'm 90% happy with it now. Taken me 2 years to get it right.





I'm still working on my Chrome one I've had for 4 years, just can't get that one to a point where im happy with it. Much prefer them white.

There's a baby/mid blue one on bmxmuseum.com. There may be an orange one on there too. Both custom colours (or colors) as the Americans would say, but both look good to me

What about white and chrome just to be different.   Half-chrome forks and part-chrome rear stays - just like they did with the 88 Haro Master.   :-\

You would need a half-decent chrome f+f to try it out though.  One which had some some sort or repair on the main tubes would make an ideal candidate. 

It's Okay guys, I'm wearing a flame-retardant suit so fire away.   :-*

Chrome forks and a painted frame always look good in my opinion.  ::)

Though about doing it to my TA a few times. A TA has to be chrome or white though (or both).

Nice, i'm going white frame and forks and then all chrome/silver components then most likely black saddle, grips and tyres...  I'm not fiddling with the frame and forks though, they should be either all white or all chrome IMO  ;)
