color opinion

[babygyrl]

just got this in today. its supposed to be hot pink. to me it looks red. i emailed the company to see if they can fix it. if not i will go with black. just sucks bc it took me close to 10 days to get this and bike is going to the shop 1st week in sept for repairs..

do you think its pink or red? or a mixture???

i included pic of sprocket and my chain. to me colors dont match

Id have to say I would be upset if I ordered red and that arrived... Maybe it looks different in person, but i have to say that looks pretty pink to me..

If those pic colors are true, then no, that's not gonna work at all. What brand is the sprocket?

[babygyrl]

yes those pic's are true color. i mean there is a huge difference from hot pink and red. i ordered hot pink and i got that crap. i got the sprocket from http://kingssalesandservice.com/

looks pink to me take them outside, especially if the room you have them in is flourescent lighting...sunlight will give you the best representation of the color

[babygyrl]

thanks teddy ill do that

Pink is a hard color to get right on metals, and you definitely want to look at it under the sun.

The sprocket does look red-ish. But it also looks oddly universal....

[babygyrl]

outside pic and pic on my cats toy, lol

[babygyrl]

is universal bad or good?

[steves]

That really depends on if it'll fit on the bike or not.

It looks annodized, and that's about as pink as annodizing gets

[babygyrl]

thanks steves


and everyone else, lol

This is the set of AL valve stems I had done ink pink for Rican Katgrl. You can see that they are about the same shade as the sprocket you got, although the lighting in the pic is bad.

definitely looks pink now
