Nope, on purpose. I made sure to change enough to be different but I love their designs and colors. I just couldn't drop 2,700 on a frame at the moment so I did the next best thing.

HOT
Very nice, I remember seeing where you had just painted. Bottles match the paint so they do not distract even though against the rules. DYI HOT
Love that blue with the black. HOT
Little update from my bike after i got the custom paint job and new chain rings and some other goodies, I guess I will have to ask if it is still hot or not?

Yep, the thing is baddass. Makes me want a Giant now. I thought it was custom painted but apparently he ordered it like this.
I'm seriously considering a TCR and getting it custom painted a darker maroon/purple with glittery pink Giant logos.

Not my bike, so I could care less, but why is the color terrible? Everyone *****es about black bikes, so why the hate on dark blue and hi vis.
You probably ride a red bike, don't you?

Simple lines, straight blade fork tapers nicely, rim height roughly proportional to frame tube thickness, stucco walls, stainless garbage can and stool, oversize dream catcher wall art...
Pretty hot.
Yellow stripe on the chain stay is a nice touch. I want that floor.

This is inside Bicycle Nomad Cafe (The Velo Bike Shop). Best coffee in Phoenix (best bike shop too!) The owner of the cafe is super cool and does a ton of bike camping/touring adventures.

I can't believe I'm gonna leave a paper trail of this, but I actually REALLY like the new Trek project 9 (GASP!!!!!).

Seriously, though, it's very well-executed and consistent, but the apparent goal and solid result are just sort of comical to me.
