Grubby, over in the Photoshop section, hooked a brother up.

Here is what it would look like with wheel option one. (and thanks to whomever I "borrowed" this bike pic from):

Which Rear WHEEL???-night-train-photoshop-wheel.jpg

I think it is "too black" (if there is such a thing ) when compared to the stock back wheel and pulley. I believe the front end needs more of a contrast cut wheel or something that has polished accents. What do you guys think?

No such thing...Powder coat the rear wheel and pulley to complete the "blacked out" look

I like the first one...its different and would look sweet on a Night Train...For the back, you may want to consider an all black solid disc wheel...that would look pretty cool with that front.

Good ideas. May have to mess with the rear wheel as well.

I am still anxious to see the other ones photoshopped on the test bike pic.
