Hello

I want to know your opinion on what color is better and why?

I need to make a decision today :(

BOB
F8 is a very distinguishable frame in terms of id so you don't need any decals. In addition the way 961 is realized in terms of graphic design totally lacks inspiration IMO.

I have an F8 and like you narrowed it down to BOB or naked silver - tough choice.

In the end I went for naked silver, it looks understated and much nicer than the naked/red/blue I haven't regretted it.

I ruled out BOB in the end as I thought it looked a bit "generic".

Both are great looking frames.

At this point maybe hold out for the '16 models. For the '15 models I really like Titan 955 and of course the Red/white. Given your selection I would go with Naked Silver. There are a sea of all black frames out there so think naked silver frame with black tape, saddle and blacked out wheels,spokes and hubs would be great.

Thanks!!!

I cant hold for 2016 models since this is a warranty replacement and that will mean to wait 3-4 months for new models. My 1st choice was the 950 naked red but the U.S. Distributor (Gita) doesn't have in size 50 available at the moment, all they have in stock is the BOB or the Naked Silver in size 50 at the moment!! :(
