Did anyone else notice that the rear wheel is laced 3-cross on the drive side, and radial on the non-drive side?

or that the peddle arms are bluu!!
edit: sorry, im in a sitty mood. i did notice the cross, i thought it was 2-cross and radial though, (im probably wrong) don't they do that to account for the extra stress the drie side allegedly takes?

FYI bikes (other than recumbents) don't have seats they have saddles... a seat is something that supports the riders weight and a saddle is one of many support points.

i refute the above:
muffin, is nothing like muff, but both 'muffin' and 'muff' are either the correct or colloquial terminology for what they are commonly associated with.
a seat may well be something you sit on, but when it refers to the part of the bicycle with which it is associated, it is a saddle.
a horsen saddle is something you 'sit' on (read:seated; base:seat) but by using the correct terminology, i know that you were on top of a horse.

It's not uncommon on dished wheels and there is a reason for building them that way, but on a symmetric build? Why? I can't see any reason to build a wheel that way.
