Does anybody have one of these masterpieces? Or know anyone with one?
I would buy this in an instant if it weren't 3,800 dollars....

I was thinking the only thing it needs is some camo bar tape.

OK, Mr. Literal. Following the lyric, the bike's name is Louise, and her (this particular bike's) skin appears to be by Mondrian. Like Body by Fisher.
Not a fan of color scheme either, just free association with sex, geometry (of the bike & paint job), and Mondrian.
Btw, I'm probably older than you, son.

If I was CEO of Specialized or Trek I'd be losing sleep now that Ringling Bros has aquired Look and initiated a major thrust to transform cycling aesthetics with the introduction of this new BOZO carbon racing line.

Kinda like those old farts who still think Cadillac is a status symbol, and you've really "made it" if you have one.

I think an El Lissitzky bike would be pretty crazy. Observe:
Perhaps someone a little bit more toned down. AM Cassandre?
But really how do you go wrong with Raymond Loewy?
