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.
Quite straightforward, surely? If the paint job matters that much, and you don't care for the offerings, don't buy! Problem solved.
Me? I quite like variations on black/charcoal with an ever-so-subtle touch of colour. I can't stand bikes that look like they've been attacked by a box of crayons. But that's just me
