Paid all that money and the forks don't even match the bike. Ouch...

But Pistachio!!!!!!!

But Pistachio!!!!!!!

There's probably about three Orbea colour schemes it looks good on, and that's about it... I really don't get it. The "heritage" brown wasn't too bad though (IMO).

Would you buy a brown car?

The only time I've wanted something pistachio coloured that wasn't a delicious nut...behold! Airblaster's freedom suit in "hotstachio"!

If the choice was between brown and an already-faded looking pistachio, then yes.

Just the interior after a near miss.

I like the pistachio. Fight me.

Nah... I don't hate the colour, just don't like it when there's nothing matching on the bike.

How you gonna just post a screenshot of that and not a link??

Non matchy forks are normally an aesthetic dud for me too but I've seen enough Pistachio on contrasting bikes (particularly matte grey / black frames) and.... I dunno. It shouldn't work but it does for me.

Plus as it's a new Fox "heritage" colour there should be a swathe of matchy pistachio coils / shocks / crap to make more matchys and please my OCD gland.

You're wrong and thus lame.

Used m8000 without brakes. $1000. Cheaper new. WITH brakes was around $700 delivered before geoblocking.

I think the 2x stuff was dearer, and near-unobtainium from memory (especially seperate chainrings), so for 2x fetishists it'a possibly not the worst deal ever. But yeah, useless for yourself.

When I bought a few groupos (albeit last was 2 years ago), 2x was same or cheaper, even with front shifter/derailleur.

They couldn't give the stuff away at one stage, that was the time to buy it. I still find lots of chain rings on fleabay and AliExpress.

I think I must've looked when they were running the M8000 2x stuff out. Never actually needed any, so very possible I am wrong anyway, haha.
