holy smokes... this can't be serious.... chainring bolts? qr skewers? two things that should not be present on any street bike to begin with...

and if you are desparate to get close to the pink (just like everyone else today) CK makes plenty of pink components. certain shades of blue too, but I just want to say, I'm not here pushing their products, as I have never used them, and probably never will.... :rolleyes:
two in the pink, none on your stink (oh, that's a Kona Shred, my bad...);)

i wouldn't spend money on little things just to make the bike look better....save your cash and get parts that will help performance like a new fork, wheelset, tires, chainguide?, brakes yadadadada. just my two cents

How about whatever color it is now mixed with scratches from being ridden.
Purple chainring bolts? That would be cool.....if it was still 1993
1. i said purple hope skewers. 2. if your going to be no help at all, why reply? 3. little things add up to make a big difference. 4. i like old skool.

Actually you said, "what colour chainring bolts, qr skewers etc do you think?"

If your gonna spend money on your ride, spend it where it REALLY makes a difference. (ie. suspension tuning, better shifters and deraileurs, stronger cranks and stem, ect.) Dont mess with making it pretty. It's a DJ bike! Go big try and break it. When something does break, spend your money then.

To answer your original question, "Whick colors go well together?" Black and Black

"if your going to be no help at all, why reply?" Because being a smarta$$ suits me:prft:

Thats all that needed to be said. You gained a small amount of my respect.

Then a comment like that lost the respect you so recently gained.

Well Chris, I really dont give a fvck about your respect for me.
The only peoples respect I care about are my children, my wife, and the one that looks back at me in the mirror.

If you are really that worried about the pretty little shiney colored things on your bike, so be it. In my opinion that is money wasted. (But you dont care about my opinion now do you?) Your bike will look great sitting in the garage waiting for replacement parts you should have upgraded in the beginning.
And DONT expect respect from someone thats propably been riding longer than you have been alive when you ask questions like what colored chainringbolts should I buy.
