There's something else these two bikes have in common.
They are both ugly. Not the bike lines, but the black on grey/black paint job.
Black on black? Really?
You would think that bikes topping out well over a grand could have a little color.
Maybe for 2016 Specialized can find another can of paint.
I am pulling out all the stops for my next bike, which I hope to be my last. Aesthetics is part of the equation.
