I love the subtlety of the orange, it looks great with the matt black. :smartass:

I’ve been looking at a few older S5 frames of recent but the gaudy colour scheme have put me off to date; but all of a sudden I find my mouth watering! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

i'm very happy with the color.. however keeping it clean is quite a challenge... nevertheless... very very pleased with the outcome

Beautiful bike. I'd spray the seat post matte black.
