Mountain bike, jacked stem is not hot.

I'm a fat old man, it's the lowest i can feel comfortable.

As far as pockets, I use them to hold my 2l bottle of coke, Philly cheese steak hero and 2 packs of cigarettes. SO i need the saddle bag.

Understood. I use my saddle-bag for the gas station chili dogs.

It's pretty cool that you can now get a saddle-bag big enough for a bike stand and took kit.

lol - I will take another picture. That was the first bag I bought and put it on there as a test. I have another bag that's at least half the size!

What if you don't train and just ride carbon wheels all the time? Do we get lol'd@ too?

Black would be boring, look like everything else. It doesn't have to be your favorite color to be hot; needs to follow the rules and execute with taste.

Thanks, I like how people recognize it when I take it with me on work-travel. The bike is used, tons of paint chips as it goes everywhere, saw 7,500 miles this year. I chose the one-color route because the bike gets raced and I'm sure it will make a second-trip to the carbon fiber repair bro. It will be a sad day when I retire it, which is not in the foreseeable future.

Black would be boring, to you. To me, the bike screams mis matched with the awful shade they used of that green yellow. Half of the bike has black graphics already on it. That is not hot.

The bike tapers in brightness from the front skewer to the saddle, the satin blue and yellow are half of a split complimentary, with the black taking the place of the 2nd half of the split. All black and blue would work, but wouldn't pop. To each is own, my point is simply that the yellow does it's job here. I'm a bit of a color/pantone freak.
