I almost have enough saved to get my girlfriend a much needed upgrade she currently has a appollo theia full sus (Piece of poo).
My budget is 500 max
She wants a purple bike :roll:
She is 5ft2 so a small size frame needed
I would really like it to have hydraulic disc brakes
So far the best looking one i have found is

But its pink not purple. :roll:
Any help welcomed warmly

Horrible. Pointless fork.
She can have colour, or a bike worth riding.I don't do smileys.

That's a fork for a £250 bike......
Pink bike the right way
Scott Voltage frame stripped and resprayed, now running some Manitou black (silver in colour) air forks.
As CD says you have a choice of a pink bike or a decent bike unless you DIY, you won't find a serious bike at that price point in pink I don't think....too 'Marmite'.Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0 -
I bought my wife a Voodoo Bantu. It's blue.
Not what she would have picked in a shop, but now she's really happy with it and chuffed she's on a 'proper' bike. Need to swap the tyres tho, they're pretty horrid.
If you can get to £550 the Rockrider 8.1 would prob be the best bet as I think it's lighter than the Voodoos.0 -
She wanted purple though.
Still hunting :?
must be a well speked purple bike somewhere would definatly consider second hand. :?:0 -
Just get a decent bike, strip it down and get the frame coated and rebuild.......Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.0
