JSource has a question for you!

Hope everyone is enjoying the Alien group buy, it has been extended to October 2nd until further notice..

If you are *smart* I hope you take great interest in the following question..

If you were in a position to buy a bike of your choice, would you buy it in THIS COLOR??


Color was a seen on a bike over at t a r k bike.com. The owner is 'Toddistic'. Credit goes to him.

Now let me know, or vote in the poll. Trust me, you won't regret voicing your opinion.

Not my first (or second, or third) choice. But, hey- I am sure purple does it for others...

Is it more of a purple or a dark blue? Is it a solid color, or is it a sparkle or a metallic?

If purple is too much, then this paint job would send some into seizures.
