Here's an idea: I can't remember who, but somebody specced Chilli Pack on their MCS, arranged with their dealer to swap the S-Spokes for X-Lites and actually got money back from their dealer on the deal. This is coz the dealer was able to sell the S-Spokes on as new.

Better add another then....
Martin don't do the CR/W we'd never hear the end of it....

I may have decided to go for it but I have 1 week to arrive at a spec......and i'm still not sure...rumages through the growing pile of spec lists on his desk

Now then what are peoples thoughts on Liquid yellow....

I saw a pic of one a few days ago on here..can't remember where though !

Stick with Black methinks, IB / W is the only other colour I'd go for, though CR / W appeals to me............Soggy can't see me over here !

Actually I am fairly settled on all black, but with the lapis blue/black interior to give it a bit of contrast.
Still undecided on everything else though......
