update on the pink thing...
To disable ads, please log-in.
so i'd decided (much because of your feedback) not to get the terry butterfly donna (pink) saddle, but when i got to my boyfriend's house last night he told me to close my eyes and hold out my hands...and there it was.
what a guy. i can't believe he's supporting his normally down-to-earth gf's obsession with putting pink parts on a MOUNTAIN BIKE. i am a lucky lady...so we'll give it a shot...i think it'll work...at least i hope so!
anyway, pics of the pinkified juliana coming soon.

There's nothing wrong with pink on your mountain bike!

Sweet pink hub! Can't wait to see the Juliana! I'm not really a pink girl myself- bike is black/ red/ yellow. But the new bike will be white-on-white and I can accessorize- er- upgrade any color I want.

OH!!! I just put that saddle on my road bike! I also have pink handlebar tape and pink bottle cages. Originally Posted by ikkin

On my mountain bike, I have pink bottle cages, and a pink Chris King Headset, AND pink bar tape as my chain gard!
I LOVE PINK!!!

I have the Pink King headset, too, to match my hubs. But I don't know about pink tape on the chain stay. That gets pretty dirty! Mine would only be be pink for a few seconds. Then grey, then brown, then black then blacker! Originally Posted by redhot3368

I really don't like pink, but if I had the legs to blast past all those XC boys (not likely, but a girl can dream...), there'd be something pretty special about doing so on a seriously pink, sparkly bike with foot-long streamers!

I also have the pink Chris King headset & hubs. I'm not the best photographer, but here's a picture of my Rcky Mountain Element, anyway. I think it's just enough pink, not too flashy.

BTW for any roadies out there Speadgoat is having another raffle for a Moots special edition road bike and just about every accessory is pink! The proceeds benefit breast cancer research.

I have one of those too, and love it! It looks nice against the basic black bike. Originally Posted by Nanci

Thanks ikkin! My husband hooked me up pretty good, this time! I was happy with just the headset, but he figured I deserved the set. Then he upgraded everything with full xtr components. He build everything up himself. What a guy! It's a great ride.
