I paid a visit to a Giant LBS today and formed the following impressions of the colours of the 3 flatbar Toughroad models.


1. Toughroad SLR 2 - Looks better than it does on the website, the coloured striping is an orangey-reddish colour and it is quite striking.


2. Toughroad SLR 1 - It also looked better than it does on the website, but it is still a very unappealing colour scheme overall.


3. Toughroad SLR 0 - It actually didn't look as good as it does on the website, but it is still an attractive colour scheme. I think the striping needed to standout more, but I guess this is somewhat in keeping with the 2017 model also having this issue.
