Planet x sl pro

Just bought my girlfreind an ex team in pink with ultegra and model b wheels and she loves it, cant recomend this bike enough!
She also has a Bianchi 928 c2c with veloce and some nice wheels and she prefers the Planet x.

Great service, friendly staff and a very gloomy looking warehouse (you cant have everything)

Another Shimano convert :shock:

Nice looking bike, although I think the bar tape and saddle would look so much better in white... :roll:

She's changing the saddle, i'll suggest white for that and the bar tape

Good man.

White is this years black.

And what with swine flu you will be washing your hands plenty anyway.

Says who?

Aggieboy

Black rather than white. If she had white and rode along eating a banana, she'd look like she was riding a trifle.

I am a bloke but i am so tempted to get the Panet x £899 special in that pink..
Not keen on the black.
Any other blokes ride a pinkun?.

Percy Vera

Spencer Smith rides a pink one

giant_man

Yeah and look how stupid he looks! .......

Scrumple

And you think he paid for it?

Good advertising.

The poster didn't ask who rides a pink bike they paid for.
I am sure Smith could have chose a black one like his mate beside him

If I was buying another PX - would consider getting the pink one!

nice and bright!

You're happy wearing lycra(!), shave your legs, but baulk at riding a pink bike? Eh? Come on chaps, we might as well go the whole hog!

clanton

Out of curiosity, what sie frame and how much does the complete bike weigh? (without pedals if poss!)

warrior4life

its a medium, my girlfriends 5'9 annd its perfect, not %100 sure about the weight , prob around 17, maybe a little under (thats with pedals)

As a man i would have no problem riding around a pink one of these... I like it

yeah, but if you look at the Panet x sight you get a better and hopefully more accurate idea of the colour from the gallery photos.
The pink reminds me of the old large tubed Cannondale mountain bikes i used to covet. Had been thinking about the Boardman but find it a little bland looking.

Pink for me!

That a Ti frame

Percy Vera

I turned a blind eye to that as the guy might be colour blind!
