Re: Re:
Awesome Roberts frame you've got there, btw! Way
!
The thing with bum bags was that they were impossible to ride with – they kind of developed their own momentum, usually at an untimely critical moment when negotiating a hairy descent or hopping over a technical trail section. Why/how did they ever catch on?

Re: Re:
That would have to be with classic zebra and pink Etto logo? I remember riding out with mates from 'Team Steamin' Log' (from Reg Braddick & Sons, out of "The Diff"). It was Etto o'clock. Combined with retina rippin' pink jerseys and tasteful black spandex. Add to this a custom fat-tubed E-stay Overbury in classic zebra – a bike I use to aspire to. And, not forgetting me on my Raleigh Arena :facepalm: crossed up to the max and home custom painted in retina rippin' pink and white zebra – before I finally got my more appropriate zolatoned Marin with Shox. Luckily, no images exist of my purple psychedelic attire of the day.

Hope you have the matching Etto helmet mate!

I remember being newly sponsored by "kangaroo POO", and being given multiple race kits, Skin tight lycra with Neon Pink, Greens and Oranges, all embossed with Kangaroos, and having to step up on the podium at malverns feeling like a proper plonker.
I have pics but even to this day, like a bad memory they are locked safely away.

No, maybe sponsored riders/pro riders did , but everyone I knew wore a mish mash of different colours, non of which matched the bikes!, we must have looked like a stream of psychedelic vomit coming down the hillside
I had the white/flouro yellow/flouro pink Diamondback shirt for a while.... I've never owned a DB bike, or one with flouro pink or yellow frame! :facepalm:
