Right folks... I'm going to be getting new wider bars and a new stem for the Supreme and I just wanted your opinions on which ones I should go for... I'm definitely going to be going for the black 720mm SixPack bars below:  The question is whether or not I go for the Bright green stem to match the frame? The frame is shown here (sorry about stealing your photo Nippy!):  And here is the stem!  Also... do I go for the matching pedals too, or will that be too much green!?  Cast your vote!!!

white stem and pedals along with the white e13 would be lush. the prob with the green is if its not an exact match to the frame(which is unlikely that it will match EXACTLY) then the green parts will look half arsed if u ask me.

No worries Chris.
I agree with Bong, don't go for the green, if it doesn't match it doesn't look good.

You can get the from the UK importer here Thompy: http://shop.ebay.co.uk/merchant/2_twenty_0_ukOr direct from SixPack here: http://www.sixpack-racing.com/de/Not going for the clown bike look Doml, lol! Fair point Bong and Nippy... I'll have a look at the Supreme's paint when it arrives and decide then I think! Might go for a black stem and keep the whole front end, apart from the grips, black.

If you get the green I'll throw up. I think your choice is between white & black.

And finish off with a Chris King Rasta headset and some Salsa Rasta flip off QR's  I agree with Bong (did I just say that - must go lie down  ) about the green and say B&W

Lol... well when I finally get my hands on the bike tomorrow morning I'll have a look at the colour of the frame and make a decision on whether to go for white or black stem (or maybe just maybe green!). Although i now need 2 new rear tyres on my car so it might have to wait for a month or so!

Lol well i'll reserve the right to do a simon cowell and go my own way... but i'm swaying towards the black to be honest... the white graphics on the bars will stand out more and so will the bash guard.
