So I have this bike, in this colour scheme:

I bought new cables from CSS that were described as green and the colour was not to far off what my bike has: (4th one over):

Alas it turns out the green is a Bianchi green. Functional me does not care but the other me is annoyed as I just would have got regular black cables.

First world problems

Does it go with purple?

Can you send them back? I'd rather burn the bike than mismatch the greens like that - yes I am that odd! :pac:

Or just carry them as spares in your Cargo-Bib pockets :-)

I see a new Canyon gravel bike (Grail) has a kind of double handlebar - Hover Bar, I'd rather walk tbh.

The best bits are the part you can't lean on and the hand position guaranteed to break both wrists.

You know what will solve this conundrum, a shiney new Bianchi bike to go with your new cables

fairly graphic video of a cyclist being knocked down; released by north wales police with permission from the cyclist, driver nodded off at the wheel.

**** that. The cyclist had absolutely nowhere to go. No amount of hi-vis / helmet / road craft / any other precaution could have helped him.

As I see it, you have two choices. either buy a Bianchi bike and put those cables on it or change them for black cables.

First world problems are real problems.

Reminds me of the Gillette story on the only news source worth reading.
Slightly NSFW for text only.

Bianchi blue, surely.

From the website it looks like the lower bar is there just to provide support for the upper bar. So it's not for your hands, as such.

...and as we all know that cyclists wouldn't do anything silly like misuse something bike related...

this sounds like an internet meme. 'is this bike blue or green?'

it's green.

Green and blue are fairly closely balanced, but slightly more green
(RGB: 40/121/114)

(You have to picture this on a readout inside my eye, Terminator-style)

magicbastarder

photoshop is giving me 112/189/184 off the colouring on their website (which you'd hope is correct?)

eeeee

This colour based pedantry is extremely pleasing. Long may it continue

pffffft nerds

magicbastarder

considering that the colour is actually one on the bike and not actually on a monitor, we really should be worried about CMYK and not RGB.

Sweet Jesus, did no one have a word with him? Reminds me of that embarassing pic of the chap crossing the finish line of the ROK a few years back.

I think it was in the Cork Examiner (or whatever it's called now) - cyclist passing under finishing arch, arms raised, and his helmet on back to front.

The father has a friend called Mickey Dick.
One is not enough.

The nicknames of his friends are hilarious. There's also The Cardboard (why? "He was always The Cardboard". Ok :pac:).
They're inherited also. Pat the Mouse bought a house previously owed by The Mouse Farrell and got the name with it.
I must start collecting them. They're magnificent.

The Irish are amazing at nicknames. I do have one poor sod buddy who is known as 'shanks'.. his surname is Armitage
