I say black!! It really looks good with the rest of the bike. Can you do one with just the spokes black? Curious to see what that would look like also.

I would go with the chrome, I'm not one to spend 8 hours to rub the bike that's why I've added some black to my bike. But I think it look much better with chrome, to me with the black wheels, it would be to much of it!! But that's just me
