Hi - my G12 has sprouted some of the dreaded rust, mainly on the front mudguard. Not a problem to treat but does anyone know the name or code of the colour used? It's the standard maroon-red (it has the cream/maroon paint job) and I can't seem to find the name of the colour or code. Can anyone point me right or suggest a stockist? Thanks!

Only that the cream colour is called Arctic white, sorry can't help with the maroon or the codes.

Steve, go to the Tech.Articles section and do a search on "Paint" - there's 9 reports to read on the topic.

yes they are the original Britax ones - and they work as i found out when I was doing some bits and forgot to tighten the twistgrip up - then got hold of it to move the bike....
it just rolled on its side and not a mark. Easy to get back upright too!
