I got a diverge in the blue color you see above, but it’s kind of boring. I want to make it a little more unique while still looking good.
I looked at blues complementary colors and yellow hues are best (gold organs yellow browns). So I was thinking going that route.
I have a tan walled wheels ready to be installed, I was thinking gold water bottle holders, gold valve stems, maybe making Specialized gold?
Or completely scrap that idea?

Just ride it
cyclists are funny. some want the flashiest gear possible. i covered my bike in duct tape so people avert their eyes. two sides of the same coin…
I put reflective tape to cover my logos and increase might visibility. Bought it on Ali express
Tan sidewall tires would help
i put cute stickers on mine!
1. Better bottle holders that don’t look so cheap
With a pair of matching dark bottles
2. Changing out the saddle bag to one that’s all black
3. Deep rims with tan wall tires
Tan sidewalls and a cooler saddle bag. Edit to add a cooler water bottle or 2. You could also get a water bottle tool kit holder, so you won’t even need a saddle bag.
Bar tape. Supacaz is my go to.
Why do you want to stand out? Are you a good rider? Leader? Group rider? Mechanic? Those are qualities that help you stand out.
Handlebar tassels and those beads that go up and down the spokes.
You can get some titanium bolts in colors to make things pop out. Better bolts is one company I was checking out.
Best you can do is a good quality bar tape and maybe a new sticker if you want to go all out. Maybe like a red bar tape and the rainbow color Specialized sticker. Not sure if anyone makes those stickers though.
