I'm hating the trend of black bikes from all the manufacturers. I will NOT purchase a bike in that color scheme, and have let dealers know. I was lucky to score the last 2015 cross frame from the national distributor in primarily white with red and black trim. The 2016 frames are black, and I told them that I would not buy one. In a way, the trend is good because it is putting a dampener on my N+1 addiction.
