True. Orange bikes are always slightly faster than black ones still ... but who wants to be riding around on an orange bike, right?
I installed my new bar extensions on my black bike a few days ago and will take pictures to post here.
Hurray for black bikes ... they don't get dirty so easily

Thanks...that's just the black ones though.
Tandem is orange, fixed gear is silver and the other road bike is primarily yellow.
That Marin photo is actually way out of date, it has been converted to drop bars (though I am thinking of going back to the flat), the fenders and rack have been removed and I'm now using it for family rides rather than commuting as a job change 3.5 years ago eliminated the ability to commute by bike.
It did let me get a black Jetta TDI Wagon though. ![Thumbs Up](https://www.bikeforums.net/images/smilies/thumb.gif)
Hmm the wife's road bike is black too.

This has got to be the biggest collection of bikes in one thread in BF with stem valve caps. WTF????

...and before anyone says something, yes, I've long since removed the enormous dork disk. Also replaced the wheels w/ DT Swiss handbuilts by Joe Young, changed the pedals to Speedplays, and swapped out the bars for Deda Big Piegas
