New to the forum - but frequent them, and came across this one - been reluctant to contribute because I think folks get too caught in negative responses and such - I love bikes - good looking ones, ugly ones, crazy ones, etc...i love to see other peoples style, color combos, etc...own three of them myself and just bought the Obey - get compliments every where i go with it - i can understand how some people can be turned off by the 'extreme' gold layout - but to totally bash the bike because you might not like is kind of childish - i mean i have seen some really crazy set ups, and while i might not personally like it, i always give people respect for what they put together and how proud they are about it -
granted, i didn't build this one - but i really love the color scheme - not to crazy about fuji bikes but this bike is light, tight and super smooth - and i didn't pay an arm and a leg for it - got it for a really great price from my local used bike spot -
An no i don't ride around like I am the s**t but i do love to talk with folks who want to check the bike out and such - whether 'hardcore' or just a simple bike lover - negative talk about why one may 'hate' a bike based on it's color combo and such is so damn snobbish -
nevertheless, those are my two cents....
From a sincere bike lover -
Peace -
