    New to riding

    Hi, my name is Becky and I enjoy running outside a lot. I do a lot of cycling at the gym also and really wanted to get a bike for outside. I just invested in a white and pink Giant bike for road and trail riding. I really wanted an all pink (preferably hot pink) bike but was not able to find something that existed already, so I just went with the white and pink one figuring I could get some accessories to make it more visually appealing for myself. I wanted to know if anyone could tell me where I could look online for pink accessories such as bike saddle/trunk bags or handle bars. Thank you anyone for your help!

    Welcome to TE!
    TE has some pink seat bags that might interest you:

    Depending on the bike, you can find pink grips/handlebar tape at the bike shop (if they don't have it in stock, they can probably order it for you!).
    Don't forget to pick up a helmet and gloves!
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    Hi Becky. Welcome. The folks on this forum are a wealth of information. Congrats on your bike. Someone on here just a couple of days ago showed a photo of her grey bike and it new handlebar tape and water bottle cages in pink. Pink accessories are out there.

    I've got a hot pink and black bike myself and love it. It can be difficult to match pinks, but it is possible! Thank goodness Castelli makes lots of stuff in just the right shade of pink for my ride... LOL.

    Try http://www.pinkbikesite.com/. That's where I found a lot of info about different pink brands out there, just by browsing the photos and reading people's descriptions of their builds. You can buy pink tires and bags and cable housing and even pink covers for your hoods. It's crazy.
