Hi,
I recently came across this shade of blue on a Hilsen seen here:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/luvmypwds/3763198868/in/set-72157621864765964
Must be a custom color, as it doesn't look like any other shade of
Hilsen blue I've seen.  From what I can see in this single picture, I
really like it, and wish I could find another showing the complete
bike.  Anyone know more about it?

holy cow, the seafoam blue AHH is a knockout.  Between the new Sam and 
Bleriot, I have to admit I like the cooler new Sam blue better.

And don't forget the easy-on-the-eyes grey-blue of the Sam Hillborne 
(unless you have the green, or the orange . . . ). Blue seems a color you 
can live with for a long time; there must be some neuroscience behind all 
this.

 No, not the Glen Frye song...

 RBW has certainly had some really nice blues over the years. The Ram blue 
 mentioned in a previous thread is French Blue, as close as I can see. Since 
 there is a forest in France named Rambouillet as well as a sheep breed, 
 makes sense. The Road and Romulus had a similar wonderful minty blue color, 
 and Bleriot and Hilsen also were/are blue beauties. I don't know the names, 
 if any, that RBW has for them.

 When my Road needed a repaint I looked long and hard at all the pretty 
 bikes in the cyclofiend gallery, almost going with the Branywine red, but 
 finally re doing it in the original blue. It just looks so good.
