Hey if you don't mind ,describe the " Black Diamond " color on your new bike. Is there big silver flakes in the black or small silver flakes or what . I want one , but haven't seen that color in person yet . I thought the Inferno Orange and Black Diamond might be cool too, but I am a little hesitant about that orange. I will watch for your answers. CD
mainly small flakes, but there are some bigger ones thrown in at random.
This photo shows what you might see at normal light, mainly black, or a regular black metallic.

This photo with a flash pops out all the different size flakes, normally you eye would not see all these at once. But the flash brings them out.

Here the flash is hitting the crimson trace and the black, showing off the metallic,

With a flash a little lower, the metallic red under the emblem pops out, and the black and crimson metallic becomes more glossy.

I'm loving it, hope this helps.
