Does Serotta take pictures of the different paint options that have come out
of the factory to help with the decision making process of how to create a unique bike?

It used to have a smorgasbord palette of colors on the old website - the new website one just is shades of dull and duller.

Think of a color and ask what they have that matches or comes closest - like pinning the tale on the donkey

I really meant the actual finished product of a completed bike before being shipped out
thanks

Co-Motion and Dave Kirk both have excellent paint galleries you could use for ideas. If you sent Serotta a picture of what you are thinking, I bet their painters could make some enhancement suggestions for a similar scheme.

I love panels and I have a big folder of nothing but bikes with panel paint jobs I like. When I eventually get a custom bike built, that's what I'll use for inspiration.

No, unfortunately they don't even though it would be easy enough to have a camera at the finish station before the frame is put into a box. Best to search out a design you have seen or find a friend who is a graphic artist and make a design for you then give it to serotta.

There are threads here on orange, white, red, purple, green and titanium, but will have all brands, not just Serottas.
