But its not a bad looking frame and I would be happy to ride one. It's like Blondeonabike said, its the pink on the white that makes the VIPA so hideous and such a cliche. blondeonabike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like Blondeonabike said, its the pink on the white that makes the VIPA so hideous and such a cliche.Want me to highlight to Victor that it's hideous... ? actually I don't think the white is that bad.... the pink is not my taste, but then I guess someone will like it...

BogusOne Posted August 18, 2014 Share There is a simple solution.... Just use vinyl to change the pink to a different colour. That wont interfere with any guarantee on the frame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger Dassie Posted August 18, 2014 Share FYI ... both Victor and Patrick also lived and worked in Asia to get an understanding of the culture, processes and manufacturing there.Even lodged in one of the factories amongst the regular workforce. Not many product managers or engineers worldwide who have done that. Wondering when Saffers generally will break out of this 'we're not good enough' mentality. For Nix, blondie and other pink activists, there may be a 2015 offering in white and red.

GLuvsMtb Posted August 19, 2014 Share it's Siren Red - NOT pink If I refer to the type of pink, I might get a warning point... deanbean 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heel Drop Posted August 19, 2014 Share color is the last consideration when buying a bike - it could be any color as long as the bike can deliver and is good - Ill take a pink one no problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyReggae Posted August 19, 2014 Share Seems like I have a bad combination on my bike ... my bike is predominantly white with pink derailleur cables and pink grips. I would actually prefer everything in matt black, but white with pink is a good compromise Uni 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
