Looks like a lot of people like the ol' purple 3dv stuff. I was hoping for more conflict! Bah!

The only thing left I have is a Front ringle hub .
I need a new bike project .

'orrible, and so far from cool it's not true!
If it was just kept to the bikes that looked good with it & the companies that did it well, then it would have been fine. However, when everyone put something purple (probably made by trans-x) on their bike, the 'coolth' was lost forever.
Please note that I'd still have purple bits on a suitable bike (although I don't on any of mine at the mo), but I'd never pretend it was cool!

I used to love it and found it spilled over into the rest of my stuff too...
I managed to convice my Dad to buy me a purple tent for my Duke of Edinburgh expeditions and I had a purple Pace Winteractive jacket, purple Berghaus tousers, purple laces in my Nike Ngubas and a purple Karrimor Hot rucksack.....dear god, not too subtle back then.
(I still have all this stuff but not the nerve to wear it all at the same time anymore. Must have looked like a right bike riding pixie back then!)
