Two tone, white over red. Think this was a standard combination on the Sweptline but could look good on yours depending on what back you fit.
(poppy red-pearl white I think and yes I know it's a 59 in the pic)

That does look nice in those colours

Hey Dave
Seeing you are such a talented fellow could you do me a picture of a manky style trike with a 17inch front wheel and 15inch rears also another with 13inch rears, up to the challenge  Grin
