Ai yi yi, Rodies, that's some HOT stuff!

Where did you get the orange seatbag? Orbea owners need to know.

WHY WHY WHY are orange bikes so sexy? My Le Tour needs a paint job, and I'm getting it powder-coated orange. It's just a sweet color for a bike. I live in Tennessee, and my favourite holiday is Hallowe'en, by the way.

The only thing that I don't like about that bike is the way the seat stay doesn't but up to the top-tube. (ooks kind of gay) :rolleyes: .

Othe than that, the bike looks tits! :p

All carbon seatstays are like that. Except on carbon monocoque frames. I believe there are some bikes with the carbon stays painted to match the rest of the bike.

I don't remember if it has been mentioned in this thread or not. I just picked up some orange electrical tape from Home Depot. So even if I don't get the orange handlebar tape, at least the part where it is finished off can be orange.

Orange, you want orange?? :)

Some of the orange bikes are so colorful I expected to see "Crayola" written on the top tube.

Milwaukee Bicycle Co. "The Orange One" sweet fixed frame and o so orange. Cheers

I love the Kawasaki Z1000....

Mine was pearl black...got rid of all the red accents (seat, crankcase cover, emblems etc) and added a Power Commander and Muzzy exhaust. The Orange ones are hot! Kawasaki didn't release the orange ones for two weeks after they released the black ones and well, I settled for black..heh

here is my orange

My step-daughter's bike: Gary Fisher Advance. I like this bike. If I didn't already have a mtn bike, I think about one of these for myself. :)

Wow. I didn't realize the orange ones came out later - but I too ditched the ugly red accents quickly. But have seen no reason to add any feature that gives the bike more power. The things wicked-fast. I ride her bike more than my Speed Triple.

Too bad you had to sell it... :(

For you orange-y musicians:

Here is my new, orange bike. A little late in posting it because it just arrived today.

nice bike, and i must say i am quite suprised by how close the orange in the saddle, tires, and bar tape match!
btw, what set of tires are those, and what brand bar tape did you use?

I've seen quite a few frames like that these days - the idea is to make the rear triangle stiffer that way. Ostuni - don't you own a Le Champ Team?

2Roadies - sweet TT bike. Did you paint that yourself? Nice - like the rear wheel.

Here's mine - single speed. Wish I'd pulled the light off for the pic. Oh well.

I am dangerous now I can post my pictures. Red is close to orange and for long as I have tried when we talking colors red is green or blue as far as I am concerned. I wonder if anyone will ask for pictures of black or blue rigs? Red is kinda close if you are color blind.

Here's your thread Mr. Red ;) .

Jimbo: The tires are Vredestein Tricomps; bar tape is Cinelli cork. The saddle was the hardest part to find. Very few orange saddles out there besides a custom Fizik, and their website checkout has been nonfunctional all winter. I found a leftover Selle Italia Merckx at CBike thanks to a Google-cached page ... didn't know that saddle even existed, but it happened to match perfectly and it's the model I use on my other bikes: lucky!
