I agree. Not trying to make every black bike stealthed out, but I think the 4 main things that would make this look better are:

-New wheels. that is a big factor for me. I have always disliked how those wheels look
-Black saddle
-Black bartape
-Black Praxis chainrings

one of my best friends has this bike and has it all black and it look pretty good.

Pretty sure that's just white concrete and not ice. He is in Gainesville after all.

That Kestrel looks like it should be a TT bike with a much wider bladed fork and aero bars, the skinny fork and drop bars make it look awkward. I'm sure it's a fast bike, though.

Looking at BikesDirect, it appears they do in fact sell that frame (the Talon) as a road bike and a TT/Tri bike, with basically the same geometry. Interesting.

That Kestrel is beyond hideous.
