Just picked up my new bike. The guy I bought it from has just put new bar tape and tyres on it which I'll probably swap for white and some 30c gumwalls. I was thinking about going tan brooks, leather tape and silver components but the black and white is growing on me. I have absolutely no money left now so it'll have to wait in any case. Also on the shopping list is a blackburn outpost front rack, VO moderniste bottle cages and some kind of mudguard, maybe longboards.

Snap! I've just got a second hand space horse (CP thread here). I went with black finishing kit (because I had it) and silver mechs (because I had them) and it looks good. Current red bar tape (leftover) is goign to be replaced with black as and when. You can see mine if you want to see longboards. Watch out for stiffening up the front too much with a big rack.
Edit: ah, the blackburn outpost fits to the brake bosses so it might not be as bad as my soma porteur. Try and borrow one first to try it before you shell out and find it isn't what you want! The Surly Nice rack mounts similarly and @edscoble (?) found it stiffened his fork a lot.
