Or instead of wasting your money you build a bike to ride not look at.

First you pick stuff out that works well then if there is some way to make it look a little better without compromising function you go with it.

my taste in form is generally a result in function but that rule is not fundamental, as I often purchase things with no desire except to improve the style of my bicycle. That said I ride my bicycle for recreation and arguably its function is to be enjoyable to look at and ride. While still being functional

We must integrate form and function!
Aero Dynamic Frames look sweet and have less air resistance
Same Deal with AeroSpokes and Deep V's
