Keep Blue ASSOS??
So I bought my first pair of Assos FI13 S-2 on eBay, auction clearly says black, opened the box.. blue fronts with black backs. I know the rule around here is black shorts only, but with the black back and black crotch I kiind of like the blue front panels. Any thoughts?
Edit: I will give a ride report to compare to the PI microsensor bibs I have been using as soon as I can get back on the bike after todays LASIK procedure... seeing about 20/40 at slice hour +5.

I think they are OK..something different from the three straight black bibs I have... I kind of think they did it right with the black in all the strategic places.

Eh, I'm over over black shorts, they look boring, slow and dopey. White is obviously the fastest, but a ***** to maintain and keep clean, so red, gray and blue look great, and are a nice change in scenery.
edit: and they're assos, so keep em.

I like my Yellow Assos but hate the Ti colored. I say keep them if you like them.
