Re:
Luckily I don’t suffer from lack of colour as I still ride Orange and they always offer a decent selection.
Hmmmmm again, the forks might be heavier but will probably perform better. Weight just isn’t an issue these days, at least not like it was but that’s maybe due to the terrain you can ride with more capable bikes? Who knows, all I do know though is that a 30lb retro bike was hard work but my 30lb+ 29er full suss isn’t.
I guess it all depends where and how you ride. I enjoy riding my 29er full suss, I enjoyed riding my old 650b ht, I have once again started enjoying my retro 26” whilst out with my pal on his gravel bike and I enjoy riding my road bike. Grumbling about new bikes is about as about as productive and relevant as those on STW slagging off anything retro.
