Orbea is not bling, definitely a brand I will never own.
Cervelo is not bling, I would consider owning but overpriced, although their marketing states advance and technical engineering which to me is overrated to some extent.
Colnago is bling for sure, except really overpriced and overrated bling, and some Colnagos are made in China, which undermined the blingness of the brand.
These are all ridable brands who invested time and resources into research and development, bling factor aside, you can't go wrong with any of these.
