Both good looking bikes. Your Team Machine has the paint scheme I was hoping for but had to settle with something a bit more muted.
Very nice! I've only seen photos online of the all-black Team Machines. Not that any first-gen Team Machine is typically seen out and about these days but the all-black versions are rarely seen. I've also seen a black version that has the aluminum lugs painted a contracting silvery grey.
Is yours a satin black paint or can you see the carbon weave under a satin clear coat? My bike's paint scheme was the first iteration of the red, white, and black (naked carbon actually) paint schemes. [/QUOTE]
