Honest opinions please...

[Penfold6290]

Hi folks, I posted up some pics recently of my 1989 Raleigh 531C and a comment was made regarding the bar tape. I was conscious that it didn't really match the bike so I have had a liitle change around. So your honest opinions are welcome please -

Before -

After (first attempt) -

Cheers, Martin

Oh dear...12 views and no comments. If you can't say anything nice then say nothing at all perhaps?

I'd say you are trying too hard. Stick with plain white.

I can see the merit in wanting to do somthing different. At the end of the day only your opinion matters

I like it. With a frame that bright, I'd either attempt to match the colours or just go all black with everything else to draw the eye to the frame.

You are going to do the left hand too, yes?
