I like the name---because the earth so desperately needs more kind humans, and we have so very many of the other kind. The script is larger than I would have liked, but that is the modern norm on bike frames---use them as billboards.
In that application the gumwalls look great ... a nice contrast to break up the solid black of the deep rims and tires.
On the whole a very clean and elegant presentation.

Not a fan of the brand, but if it works for you, the color scheme is working great.
I would think white tires would work better with the white on blue, but I would be wrong. The gumwalls look great.

It's not done yet, but I'm too cheap to drop $300 on an ENVE seatpost right now, 60mm pink valve stems don't seem to exist, and I need to get the proper spacer to slam the stem farther...so here it is. When I make the updates, I'll post again.

The only thing I dont like about your bike is that Enve stem.
It just jars with me.

I'd rather see a taller steerer and a level stem, or at least a stem which is parallel to the top tube.
Too late for that I guess.

you must be packing.
lol.
eTap? not a good looking groupset.
eTap is fun, but it's not sexy. It's a novelty
I'd rather have Chorus.

Brilliant! Someone said something about white instead of "gumwall." Well, graphically that might make sense, but in the real world, something not so clear would seem to work/age better. I'm loving my gold bar tape; if you really scrutinize it, you can tell it's not clean as new, but you certainly don't notice that it's not clean. Besides, the light beige goes as well with light blue as white would, I think.
Thanks for posting that. You know, lately I was considering having a frame custom painted, mostly black with some pink, as a sort of souvenir of an upcoming Giro vacation. Now I'm thinking: no. Not that your bike isn't hot - it's fine - just that now that I've seen something like it, I know it's not something I want so much. You may have just saved me a lot of money.

Until I decide to get rid of ENVE components, it's going to have to look like that. It's also 130mm which makes it stand out a bit more, but short stems are for mountain bikes.

Sorry but i've never been a fan of colored chains.
Its like car guys that put all sorts of color matched doo dads on their engine.

All of that red - it needs to go. Overall shape is nice and I really like the color of the frame, but I'm unsure of the graphics - without the eye-sore red battling for attention, the graphics might not be too busy, but I'm having a hard time unseeing the tires/tape/cages/calipers.

What's with the curve of those bars? Looks sorta like old style bars you'd find on a quill stem, with long ramps and big drop.
Or is it the camera angle?
