Yellow is the color of bed-wetters, that's for sure.

Red for speed
Black for aero
White for vibration dampening
Adjust the proportions to your desired ride quality

Celeste and yellow is the only patrician option for a Bianchi.
Just celeste is for fags.

Those frames were fucking insane. So responsive. Sometimes too responsive. Shame Bianchi doesn't do that color combo anymore.

It depends on your cadence. The colors wavelength and frequency must match with your pedaling.

What if I am a 50-cadence masher? Then what color is best for me?
>inb4 spin faster or you'll fatigue
No I'm not a fat fuck like pic related so I can ride 50 cadence for like 14 hours nonstop and not get tired.

The wavelength of the color should be a multiple of 50, obviously.

That is 0,83Hz and for the correct color it has to be multiplied with 10^15 and the Speed constant 2.2, which gives you 796,18nm, so it looks like infra red is the way to go for smashers.

I would go with orange on white, also known as the colors of the lean cuisne box. But you have to be true to your heart. Pic possibly related.

I've got a nice blue to purple gradient, front to back

Comfy all over, fast in the rear (because they had to add red to make purple)

Nice bike

Got an old steel road bike that goes from a blue (literally the most generic blue ever if you need more of a description you're probably colorblind) to a hot neon pink.
Is it good?

Depends, if you are on rough roads with potholes and stuff yeah it will be super fast cause rough roads with potholes are old just like the blue pink color scheme, but on a bike path or freshly paved road you'll probably be slow and clunky

Ok. Good thing I'm by, but not in, Chicago so the roads are tolerable, but flawed.

you must match. not matching will destroy any speed gains from your color selection! if your socks do not have stitching that matches your secondary color, then may god have mercy on your soul

Only teal rims I can think of that don't involve spray paint would be purefix flip-flop wheelset. Should I make a ss/fixie conversion? I've already got a 17t fixed lying around

The fixed gear is set up on an old Chicago schwinn speedster frame with 26" wheels and a suspension fork, both off of a Walmart bike. I'm pretty sure the fixed gear is gonna be the last part in the garbage.
