Clearly the Planet X paint job designer didn't attend the first day of graphic design school. </p> <p>I dislike that more than the overall scheme - which just looks to me a bit like the last scheme but inverted.</p> <p>Agree the red and black one is handsome, but a bit too "mainstream" to stand out. A British Racing Green one would have been much better. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3854#post-40364 Thu, 08 Sep 2011 08:24:13 +0000 Nelly 40364@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Hmmm, perhaps the bronze/beige one is deliberately looking like dog poo to remind us of what is on some paths.</p> <p>And the black / red combo might as well be a specialized (nothing wrong with that, I have one), such is the 'look at me' brash nature of the logo. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3854#post-40363 Thu, 08 Sep 2011 07:45:52 +0000 steveo 40363@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Bit of a price bump too. Both look ok but I'm a little weary of planet x photography after my mates carbon 456 turned out to be barely finished not the gloss black that was pictured. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3854#post-40329 Wed, 07 Sep 2011 18:56:44 +0000 crowriver 40329@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The black one looks okay. The bronze/beige combo though: vile, utterly vile! I can foresee a few remaindered frames being sold off cheap next year, bought and hastily resprayed! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3854#post-40326 Wed, 07 Sep 2011 18:30:20 +0000 Min 40326@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>You should be pleased, then you can't sulk if all the people you try to persuade to buy one, buy one because at least theirs will look different. :-) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=3854#post-40320 Wed, 07 Sep 2011 16:52:18 +0000 Wilmington's Cow 40320@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>It would appear that the 'sand' is now old hat. Thought there might be a change after their new forks were listed as black or bronze.</p> <p>May I just say, on the colours and the new text and so on.... <a href="http://www.planet-x-bikes.co.uk/i/q/FRPXKV2/planet-x-kaffenback-swap-out-frame">Urgh</a>! </p>
