And I'm on the opposite end. Purchased the Hillborne because of the green paint. And one of the things that attracted me to the SimpleOne was it was green. And a slime green, to boot. While the QB orange is nice, I personally didn't like the SH orange. Nothing wrong with it, just didn't appeal to me.
And maybe that's why the colors change, too many folks like one over another and this gives more choices.
