Shaun aRe - I like my eggs soft boiled. If you like your eggs hard boiled, you are a bad person, and
quite probably stupid as mud. Now go and cry about liking the hardboiled eggs I so despise.

Purple was done to death in the early nineties. I had an all black Amp B2 with purple Ringle hubs,
purple Grafton cantis and purple ringle twister skewers. It was fugly. I liked it.

These days if a part works, I don't care what color it is. Though if I am building up a bike from
new parts, then sure, I might go for the red King headset.

I'd never considered the connotations of the purple bit of purple ano. I'm guessing the purple = gay
thing stems from the US.

Basically put, ano looks ****. Unless it's black. Shiney translucent coloured parts are the
equivalent of wearing a sequined top. 'Shiney, shiney, cheap, cheap, attention, look at me, I've got
coloured bits'.

Purple's the worst colour, and there was a profusion of it in the early 90's. Truly hideous...
