I gotta say I am quite pleased with it. Nice crisp lines and the paint is in the right spots for durability. I have never owned a blue bike for this but it has deeply grown on me. Probably my next Ti bike I want to do some custom anodizing work so probably a Firefly gravel bike of some sort being I have two ti mountain bikes (Habenero 26 and Salsa Timberjack Ti) and I have been lusting after a Firefly and their anodizing work for years.
