Well explained over frame makes sense for the orher companies

Thanks for your comment, it's very encouraging to continue pursuing my passion for bikes.

For equipment, well, I found a PINK Bell Image. And new. And for €15.
Of course, the size doesn't fit me; not everything was going to be perfect.

But if one has appeared, another will appear, perhaps in blue instead of pink. Who knows?

From a pure visual aesthetic point of view, I think it would be worth researching and trying to eliminate the silver parts except the central shock unit. Easier said than done. The front fork canti-bridge in this configuation with the Maguras would be fairly easy to deal with. When it comes to the whole transmission, yes we get the default Shimano - but Shimano were dreadful at imposing their aesthetics with limited choice.

Sounds crazy, but with a LX 56x transmission the yellow will just pop out more I think. The rear mech can be made all black by splitting with XT or road - it is more involved.

All would be in the magic numbers too.

You know when you get that itch, that feeling when you see a 'buy it now' on something that you argue with yourself that you think you can afford? I scratched that itch as soon as I saw this and I cant wait for it to arrive.

It looks period correct with the Suntour XC Pro (something I havent physically touched in18 years!)

All that blue too!
