Black.

Think about going Black+ though. Meaning, black rims with orange spokes. Or reverse, orange rims with black spokes. If that's too much orange, only do the nipples in orange and get the rims and spokes in black (I'd vote this).

I have black rims and painted my spokes white (left the nipples stainless steel). I think I might switch it to the idea I offered to you....black rims, black spokes, and white nipples. OR....black rims, white spokes, and then a color on the nipples (blue, red, bronze, gold, etc.).

And replace "orange" with "rust" or "copper"....the color in your pic doesn't look as much orange as before.

I think that Im planning on doing something along this route. After this rebuild Im going to be sending pics of my bike trying to expose some of my paint work, so I think its going to get something a little different than the norm.
