You're a jerk.

Don't mean to come off so mean, but come on. That's just rude.

Well I am disposed to like classic steel bikes but the brownish frame looks bland and I wouldn't put yellow tires or lime green bar tape on anything. But colors are a personal thing. If you like it then it's beautiful.

The color of the frame is the one thing I don't really like about the bike. It's the nicest riding frame I've ever ridden though... But overall the whole thing is a bit ridiculous :)

Jesus, what is it about asians and bicycles? Every single bike shop in Taiwan (save for the Giant retail stores) has some kind of ridiculous stock of Time, Look, Pinarello, and Colnago. Lightweights everywhere, and one store even had some anniversary gold-plated Colnago and a 50th Anniversary Campy group on display.

Note: I'm asian

The frame, wheels and every last part on that bike were mail ordered from EU. I'll tell you what it is about Asians and bicycles - failing EURO and £ :)

I like it too. I do funky mixes of colors on my bikes as well.

I think they are but the decals look light :)

No, they're Bontrager XXX. I hate them. Braking power isn't great. They look good with the bike and that's about it. Unfortunately, new calipers are low on the schwag list, so they won't be swapped anytime soon.

Also, here's the full size version!

^ That is a good looking Felt, but the brakes don't compliment that frame very well IMO. Anyways, your bike gets a " mostly hot" from me.

Here is mine, in its latest iteration(s):

With Reynolds Strike wheels (I no longer have them, however):

With Zonda wheels and PMP titanium seatpost to replace the generic black aluminum one that used to be on there:
