I am himming and hawing over which color to get.
Tan, silver , or black.
 
My Bleriot is Minty Blue/cream headtube.
Tan could work, silver would be fine, and black would work because I have black bars and saddle.
 
Anyone know does the black and tan look cheap? Or good?
 
Let me know. Thanks. Just can't decide what will look best.

I think my cream looks great. The best compliment was when someone
thought they were painted aluminum fenders.

Here's a link to my Hillborne (Atlantic green/blue w/ cream fenders):

But don't sweat too much over it, they're just fenders on a bike.

I have the black Longboards on my daily rider (Salsa Vaya).  While not as fancy-looking as Honjos or Berthouds, they look nice enough that I wouldn't pay more just aesthetics.

It seems they nailed a match to the Riv cream.

I think they look great on my Hillborne.

I think the tan is a pretty nice match with the Rivendell cream headtube and accents.
The fenders work well, but you will get drips off the front stays that may hit your shoes.
