I'd like to repaint a frame and I have a couple of colours in mind. The bike will be built up with a fair few black components, so what do you think of these as colour options?

Since they are similar tones you could do two tone ?
Rear triangle being green, front main four being orange ?

those 2 colours would go well together

That orange looks very similar to the Ford Focus orange my Zaskar frame arrived in..

S'a lovely colour to be sure, as is the green.. and agree they'd probably go really well together too

that green and white
or green and black

Definately no fades, if I'm honest, I really don't like fade effect paint jobs. In addition, for a tough finish, I was hoping to get the frame powder coatet, so I'm probably going to have a hard time finding the someone that does the finsih I'm looking for, this looks promising though: http://forum.caswellplating.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=493&cat=504

I'm leaning towards the green, I think it's more unusual and together with the black components and some black detailing, I reckon it'll look pretty swish.

Has anyone ever used the stickers from this Ebay seller:

Hammerite Black - no one will nick it and you will have the smug satisfaction of ride a thoroughbred that looks like a Grifter

Personally I like the green as I would not be seen dead in a ford so focus orange :?: Not for me :!: But the choice is yours(don't do it )
