Hubs - Satin black or Gloss?

[GMC]

What’s your views on shades of black for a hub?
What looks ‘right’?
What were most hubs normally?

[cyclegod]

satin black always looks the goods

Viva la difference   .

Gloss for the 'bling' look; satin OEM or racer  .

(But NO black rims under any circumstances )

I agree - the 83 CR I had had been done in gloss - didn't look right.

I've tried all different shades of Black Geoff, it depends what bike it is. The color I like the most is VHT barrel  paint p/n SP-906 satin black. It looks better than gloss and has that "original look" to it. Do the backing plates aswell.

Satin all the way. I've done a few in gloss black - even when the cosmetics are totally non-original, gloss hubs still look odd.

FWIW, the gloss black front hub on my DT1 is frequently mistaken for a Husky hub. I guess that gloss black hubs would be OK on an old Husky.

Satin in almost every situation....never, ever gloss.

Whatever happened to Matt 
Looking through Legendary Motocross Bikes and 7/8 are Satin and I'll go with what D Crocket said "It depends what bike they are on" !!
You gotta get high on Kent Howerton's 80 RH250 page 111.quote:Thats the way I liked it.
