Or at least it oughta be.
Actually it's Italian flag colors...or is it Christmas? Either way, it was on clearance at Nashbar!
I found this on the web about the Italian colors.

The Tricolor was first adopted in 1796 by the Lombard patriots and became the symbol of Freedom and Unity. It was sanctioned as National Flag by the Italian Republic in 1802, by the Italic Kingdom in 1804 and by the first King of the Savoia dynasty, Carlo Alberto, in March 1848.
Since the first time it was adopted, the Tricolor has remained the symbol of Independence from foreign rulers for all Italians, who fought several battles during the period known as the "Risorgimento," until they succeeded in securing freedom and unity.
Let's just call it
FREEDOM TAPE!

Looks great overall; I'm gonna start hanging out at the transfer station.
It attaches to the seatpost. I had a traditional rack on there first, but I kept hitting my foot against the panier. Both were free, so who am I to complain, as long as it works. The brand is Delta.
