Personally i'd go for a colour that you can't get stock.

Depends if you want something loud or not but something like British Racing Green with white or yellow forks, either would work see below.
That would be pretty stylish and i've never seen that on a bb7.
Works really well with the balfa yellow logo too.

Ok sorted, im sendin the bb7 off mid january. At least that gives them blenty of time to recover after xmas etc. Im not sure on colour yet lol, so ull jst have to wait till it comes back.
I got quoted 140 (that includes the 30 p&p charge) by argos n then jamie said a new set of balfa decals would set me bac 20. I really want the 8s white, but i have to removal all the internals etc n jst sned the legs off so not sure. If i do, it will cost me another 50.

Rite guys, the bb7 is now taken apart n sittin in my garage in pieces lol and ready for sprayin. Im not gettin the forks done as it cost a bit too much plus im saving up for my car etc, so they will have to wait. So tis jst the frame goin to be sprayed black (NO not pink or sky blue pink before anyone says). Total cost is no 160 which aint bad. Ill get before n after piccies up in a bit.
