I think a prerequisite is panache. if the bike has none then there is no bling.

Cervelo's have none. altho the SLC-SL is a mighty fine steed I don't see it as bling. just a racing bike.

anybody agree / disagree?
Agreed, whoever thinks Cervelo are blingy got owned by their marketing.

The following list is what I considered bling:

Handmade Steels (Vanilla, Richard Sachs)
Calfee
Colnago
Crumpton
De Rosa (some of their bikes are damn ugly)
Look
Parlees
Pinarello
Storck
Time

For those who think BMC, Cervelos, Orbeas are bling, they're not, they are just racing bikes.
