I was wondering if anyone knows the official colour names of this bike... not counting the purple-ish.

It may be mentioned in the catalogue here http://www.retrobike.co.uk/gallery2/d/12573-2/1993.pdf

And if I knew German maybe I could've found it myself :oops:
 
Re:

I have that bike and 2 different '93 catalogues, but it doesn't say what the colours are. If you want pics from the catalogues in English or if i can help in anyway let me know.
 
Bike manufacturers don't tend to offer up colour codes or specific matches to their finishes. They may give them a name to satisfy the customer's reading a catalogue. Marin with the zolatone grey finishes made it harder again as this was a fairly unique process that the everyday person is unable to attain.
If I were hoping to recreate that look I would hunt out a dark grey colour match for the main frame & apply it with a matt laquer & find a solid dull silver/non-metallic colour for the lugged type sections.
