Thanks....not looking forward to getting back on the bike mentally, but physically I'm dying from not riding/running.

They're cast iron, some have sanded the iron smoother w/ dremels and then painted a black, silver, or gray and put a logo sticker for a little detail. I did the black VHT paint w/ a logo decal way back when I had "those" brakes. j/k
Is it me or does that rim accentuate the smaller brake size? A "busier" rim hides the brakes more. And again, I think we're talking a 12.8 inch brake compared to a 13.6 inch brake. Again, that could just me justifying "those" brakes

On 20's, non sport brakes seem a bit under the weather. On 19's, not so bad. I think I will go with bright silver and drilled rotors/steel lines.

Not just you, I justified the need for the BBK about the same way

If you "had to" and I mean "really had to" paint them a color other then silver or black, a copper color "might" work and still stay classy at the same time.

Really, really, really had to paint them a color that wasn't black or silver?

How about a dark bronze?
