edit: btw this was right after I built the bike (note no pedals yet). I ended up removing all the spacers and cutting the fork. Made for an uber stiff front end.
The specific colors of the green tape and blue frame are almost perfectly (at least that my eyes can distinguish) the cold end of a rectangular tetrad color scheme and I rather like it. What I don't like is the standard monochrome color arrangements all of the frame manufacturers use. It's as if they are afraid to pair any color with anything other than black or white. Red/White, Red/Black, Blue/White, Blue/Black.... meh.
