Does the chrome bike come with white saddle/white grips or black like on the retrospec website? Why the discrepancy?

I had ordered the 'Betty Davis' for my girlfriend and it came just as it was pictured here on Amazon. I hope that helps?

Mine was the older V brakes, the disc brake model had just come out mine was old stock. Sorry no idea on the forks that's too technical for me lol

I have not picked up the white version, but the black finish has a subtle texture that does provide a very decent grip. I don' know about black finish over silver plating versus some other combo of materials

sir, madam, i have the exact same bike. only exception, mine is a 1996. fits awesome,looks awesome,and MUCH stronger (heavy duty) than the stock version back rest assembly. the actual black pad is a lesser quality,only attaches with 2 small wood screws. so i just ran some Velcro tword the bottom of the pad,so far so good, and will replace pad if,and when i need to. 1 season so far with no problems. but you wont be disappointed with the quality and looks with this hardware (LOTS of chrome ! hope this helps ya out ! J.Smith ps-Be safe out there !

No, just ordered this and only came with Chrome and White, as the listing said. Should have paid more attention to it instead of the comments which seemed to indicate it did.

The kit I bought a year ago is this same one, but the picture has changed, my kit didn't include the fork guards as pictured here. I would say you're safe seeing as they list it as a black kit still. All my parts were perfect and black!

Only came in black... But I'm sure amazon offers one that will come with the chrome backing. One thing I dislike is that the mirrors vibrates really bad. I would not suggest buying this particular one if you found better.

I actually have both the chrome and the brushed nickel version of the seat. I think that they are great quality products. The one that you want is: Church 18170NISL 000 Elongated Soft Close Toilet Seat with Nickel Hinges, White

Is yours that black and more of a shiny chrome? I don't think the black and gray would look good. Go with an all black set of grips. I have the black and gray grips on a custom painted Springfield Operator that's black. They look awesome. But the dark gray against that chrome, just don't see it.

I received mine in the mail yesterday. I also believe they sent me the wrong grips. It doesn't even look like the ones pictured.

Strange- no its definitely chrome. We accidentally ordered two and the seller wants to charge us a restocking fee- let me know if you'd be interested in buying from us- we'd give you a discount from the regular price.... But as far as the hand held goes- we like it a lot. It has nice pressure and has a good weight in your hand. We can send you photos of our installed one as well as the extra one we have if you like.... Garrpat@aol.com Thanks!

The one I got was black. You'll probably want to put grips or grip tape on the parts you will be holding so you can use whatever colors you want for that.

As for packaging, mine looked like crap but the bike was fine. The pedals are regular pedals that you can get almost anywhere if you don't like them... Do make sure you look at the designation on the pedals and put them on the correct side or you will strip them out. You can always reject the shipment (if you are there to receive it) if the bike is haging out of it. Or Amazon is really good about refunds.

It's for 1, you need to buy 2 if you want a pair. At least that's the way it was when i bought mine (see order info below) , although i did just now find a link for a pair of mismatched sizes that might work for you depending on your setup (link below): 2 "Sunlite Ergo Ridge Mountain Bicycle Grips, 90mm, All Black"Misc.; $5.93 Total for this Order: $18.85 Sold by: Niagara Cycle Works Sunlite Ergo Ride Grips, 90mm RH / 130mm LH

The bars are black. NO chrome. We have them on our tandem and like the ability to change posture on long rides.

Mine is exactly as shown. Works great although it can slip very slightly on the round bars. Thin rubber pad will prevent that.
