^^ Thanks for that. Even if it is from that "other" forum, it's sticky-worthy.

I was wondering why he was keeping it a secret. So I googled it. His post in that "other" forum was one of the top results. (It was stuff I knew but wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything.)

so friggin what dude? everything in society is about looks to some degree. otherwise every bike manf would make bikes with plain single color scheme that took minimal cost and effort. if they are out riding and enjoying themselves, great.

Especially if, after about 20 miles riding the bike setup make you hurts like hell. When you actually work with real live people day after day with issues like these, one begins to see a trend.

Oh.

Equating bike setups (which are unique for each person) with the color of the bike made me chuckle. Thanks for that.

I always cringe when I see fellow cyclists with locked arms, it's so "wrong" but no point in arguing with them.

Actually, when we are doing fittings we will coach riding positions...and watch how wide people's eyes get on a trainer with wattage measurement and they can see the power go up.
