Any rear derailleurs with weird colors/color patterns.

[Grant]

I know about the many rainbows of the Paul Powerglide, The pink Ofmega Mistral, and the leopard print Sram ESP 9.0. The thing is, what other eye catching rear derailleurs are there? I don't like front derailleurs at all, but love rear derailleurs. This is why most of my bikes are 1x.

So you don't want Paul, how about Precision?

Mountain biking in the 90s was a crazy time.

Although Simplex sux big time, their Alpha derailleurs are cool. They do come in all white and all black, but there are 2 colorful models as well.

Here is the red and white.

If you are building a bumble-bike, you should check out the yellow and black.

It was the best of times, it was the blurst of times...

Hee hee! I snuck a Paul der in there, and a front der! Double whammy! Ruined your thread!

I do indeed like Paul for the quality and the colors, but I am not a mountain bike.

I am not a mountain bike.

Me neither. But I've been practicing.

I meant mountain biker, but this gave me a laugh.

Not as wild as some of the ones posted above, but I had a bike long ago with Suntour Blue Line derailleurs. LOVED those. No pics of mine and it got stolen after I had it a couple years, but this is what they looked like.

I remember seeing a Univega with those derailleurs.

When riding on a giant crankbait was attractive.

∆You saying you wouldn't want to ride that?

I would ride that, but even for someone who rides road bikes, that seat to handlebar ratio is crazy. I don't know why they did that on a MTB.

This TT bike looks more comfortable than that.

Now I NEED colored derailures.
