Thumbs up

I'm a big fan of white on black deep dish wheel logos back to the HED days with Yeti, but I think the black on black murdered out look would be sick on that bike, and thats totally not my style. I'd rock that out in complete ninja mode with no color anywhere.

Think you should leave the white - adds some contrast - and buy a second wheelset with black decals. I have a white on black ride and a couple of others that are all black "stealth". Switch it up ... life is too short to live by rules.

I'll second the dark gray. Stands out just enough. Very cool, subtle look.

But if you're Italiaphile enough, pink (or Celeste) all the way! Doesn't really apply here, though, nor am I maglia rosa enough to get away with the previous myself.

I bought the Powertap Classic 45 wheel package, and the first thing I did was remove the ghastly Cycleops decals. I've since toyed with the idea of replacing them with proper ENVE ones, and not sure of which ones to go with A: Because my Wilier frame is lipstick red, white and black and B: not sure what my next frame will be. I like thinking ahead, although it usually amounts to nothing more than . In the end, I can't quite justify spending $40 or so on advertising a product that isn't my own, even though it would add cool bling to my hog. So they remain blacked.

Black decals, but add a touch of color accent somewhere.

BLACK OUT.

Minority opinion I know but I think white Enve fork decals /logo look(s) like crap also & I say that as former Mizuno carbon fork owner...

I'll be different. I like the white decals. If they were black, that would be fine, but I'd expend no effort in blacking them out.

How important is it to you to advertise for enve and for to let everyone know what wheels you ride? I would black them out or remove them. Enve should pay you not the other way around. 😎

No decals. Did you buy those to ride or impress other people?

Clearly the answer here is... white decals, white bar tape, white saddle.


... and your shoes better'd be white too.

Anyone find it funny the name of the company is envy--a bit mispelled, but still?
