I really loved my neon green one. 

[workshyfop]

the neon pink or green were both awesome colours, nothing screams '85 quite like a bit of in your face brightness.

[oldschoolib]

seen that looks well

[stu27]

what about a darker version of baby blue?
i gotta say though,i think they are awesome in chrome

[Gnarlyscoots]

Baby blue for me. Chrome bars and fork     

[oldschoolib]

love baby blue

White frames are so 2012. And wankballs 2000

I always liked the neon colours DP did, you could do a mix and match with them   

pink or green frame and fork, pink bars and seat post or

green frame, pink forks, green bars, pink seatpost or

a different combination of the above

The neon green looks amazing. That gets my vote.

[pickle]

Depends on year I guess? If its an early one then didn't they only come in white or chrome?

[john4130]

smoked chrome looked good.

[Retrodan72]

smoked chrome looked good.

It was actually a nickel/bronze finish John, used only on the Ltd Ed GL+. It costs a fortune to do the process now, double the cost of chrome plating.

Ed got SBD to replicate it, it looked amazing to be fair.

Here you go, this is Cozzfathers from BITD AFAIK, I like it because of it's uniqueness and originality.

IIRC Dave Park offered a re-coating service when he started the neon colours so you could send your parts back and have them redone   

Remember the oft used phrase these are opinions, it's your bike so it's totally up to you what way you want to do it.

That's very true Rod about Dave Park offering the paint service to all. 2 brothers down the road from me had their white Ammaco Koolstylers taken there by their parents, one had his done pink, one green.

With us being 6 miles away from the factory, these colours popped up all over the place, on Raleigh Bombers, and everything.
