Some people seem to like these type of colors, but i hate them.
My guess is the designers are going for a discrete color scheme that don't shout "steal me!" to potential bike thieves. The bikes are frankly pretty bland and boring, but I feel like if the main purpose is to commute and be left outside, you're last worry should be your individualism expressed through your bikes paint job!
