Sweet wheels. Not a huge fan of white bikes, and specifically not of white bartape, especially when it doesn't match the color of the bike. So I'd vote Not on this one, sorry.

I'll give him a pass, I use white tape on a few of my bikes, & they get dirty quick.
Mine clean up nicely tho.

Except the tape doesn't look dirty, it's just a different color. And that bugs me, sorry. But I'm the guy with a colorful bike and black bartape so what do I know? :rolleyes:

tape is white Easton cork. It's dirty, but I think it can last until the spring. The off colour saddle and bars is due to the fluorescent lighting.

Jim, all those bikes are HOT. Of course, the Merlin Cyrene (gush), Vitus, Paramount mixte, Basso (hot enough to overcome the splatter tape), Paramount track bike, and Litespeed Classic are all exceedingly hot. I don't remember seeing the Paramount track bike before. Very nice. :thumb:

Ghost Ryder 10-25-13 06:52 PM

Ouch!!!
I love this orange! Hot!
Was this to match your team colors?

hed210 10-25-13 07:18 PM

Exactly !!! To match our team colors...they better not change the colors for a year or so now..hahaha

I like the color. I'd like to see a better picture though. Based on this picture, its very much a not for me. The stem/bars look all sorts of funky. Don't like the crank, don't like the long head tube.

Dig it. Unique/not cookie cutter and it is clearly getting use.

Stem and bars look funky? hahaha yeah ok ... 120 negative stem with Ritchey EVO curve bars....I guess they're funky and its a race bike ...the crank isn't made to look pretty its made to produce massive power! The bike is a 61 so you don't really get a choice on the head tube buddy ...... Thanks for your comment ;-)
