Actually, while he is comatose and not reading this, maybe we can all get together and ask for leopard print ones.......just to confuse him :D :D

Well Bearprint might be having a tough time at the moment but now I am back on my Racing Green, Silver and Black ebike I still really like the combination. It's the first and only bike I have had so my opinion is based on very limited experience.
Green definitely is my answer!
I can understand why Silver is popular just as it is for cars but this means it is fairly common as a downside so loses some individuality.

Many thanks for your suggestions and personal preferences.

The latest upgraded 2012 range of eZee bikes will soon be available in the UK in a choice of new colours:cool:

Below is one example, the new version of Sprint LDS stepthru which will also be available in Blue, White, Black and Silver.

The new 2012 models are not just face lifted, there are many improvements and higher specification throughout the range.

There will be a couple of new models too.

All will be revealed in due course;)

Cyclezee....told you so,like me you are none the wiser!!!!
I was tempted to make a pink bike at some time but every dealer told me that customers would look at it,ladies would go 'ooooooooooo' but nobody would buy one.
Good luck with your new range

There is a vast fortune awaiting the person who invents a conductive "chameleon" paint, one which can change to various colours at a flick of a switch.

Imagine the royalties from every car, motorbike and bike produced in the world, not to mention other uses such as on household "white" goods and even walls.

The income would make Bill Gates look like a pauper.

You know what Flecc.....that is a genius idea.......would it be at all feasible ?
If not, why not ?

And if it IS....tell me first please so I can get going on making my fortune........PM me the details and we can share the fortune :D :D

I believe it is feasible, chameleons and squids produce colour changes electrically for example. Costs wouldn't be too critical since manufacturers, dealers and importers would benefit hugely from slashing their stocks to the one finish, and production line costs would drop.

The benefits are numerous, no more customer waits for the right colour car for example. Also, after washing the car it could be driven as gleaming black, but when it became a bit dirty it could be switched to silver, grey or brown to match the shade of dirt to hide it.

Dave, actually you ARE a little wiser. You now know, that no matter what range of colours you buy in, someone will want a bike in the one colour you don't have. Me? I like my white bike although your sport range you mentioned earlier, I prefer the black over the silver. You're even more confused now though, aren't you?

I one respect Dave, I am none the wiser, but I didn't really expect to be.
To repeat what I said at the beginning of the thread, choice of colour is subjective and quite honestly, the preferences and suggestions are pretty much as I would have expected, varied and individual.

It could make finding your car in a large car park a bit difficult though; you'd have to remember what colour you left it in as well as the location! I have red car, and can spot it hundreds of yards away, but if I'd changed the colour that morning on a whim...

It would need an adaptation of the radio key signal to direction point towards the car.

Of course the police would hate chameleon cars, total dependence on number plates!

I would probably make it a rule to always park in Leopardprint colour.......and keep the whims for whilst driving.......the mind boggles :D :D

Bit late to reply but IF it was a sit up and beg type bike the best colours for female customers would be palest powder blue and palest yellow.

If its boys bikes no way above colour, whether sit up n beg or other style.

I like my black and white bike but would have preferred palest blue or yellow.
