Pro  4608    Brooklyn, NY |  Subject: RE: Team Post Padding (Four-Is-More Challenge)Post padders, I need opinions. I bought a new bike right after my crash. After face planting at 19mph, I figured, "hey, I'm worth it." I got the Cervelo P2C Ultegra, which has a black/gray frame. I could have cared less about the difference between the Ultegra and DA build because I'm just not that good of a cyclist. But I kind of preferred the red/white color scheme of the DA. Long story short (I know, too late), it turns out my LBS can put the red/white frameset on my ultegra build for no extra charge. Red is my racing color, but it's mostly white anyway. So my question is, which do you like from a purely aesthetic standpoint? Here are the two colors: (Red.jpg) (Black.jpg) Attachments ---------------- Red.jpg (45KB - 11 downloads) Black.jpg (54KB - 12 downloads) |

Science Nerd 28760 Redwood City, California | Subject: RE: Team Post Padding (Four-Is-More Challenge) Personally, I love the black and grey color scheme. But, my tri bike is a Litespeed Blade in titanium with purple accents, so clearly I like the grey. It sounds like YOU want the white and red one, so that's what you should get. |

Master 1356 | Subject: RE: Team Post Padding (Four-Is-More Challenge) LazyMarathoner - 2008-09-12 9:32 AM And just so you know, I'm terribly indecisive. I'll probably be sitting on the bike having it fitted and still be second guessing my decision. I saw the first one, red and thought, "oh, pretty, fast!" Then I saw the gray one and thought, "SOLD" BUT ... after muling it, I think the gray looks cool to some extent because of the photo background. In a more random background, I think it would be more blah and the red would still scream. |

Champion 5807 Henderson NV | Subject: RE: Team Post Padding (Four-Is-More Challenge) The Gray is stealthy...and I haven't seen too many. The white/red has pizzaz, but I see those often. I say go with the gray and get purple handle bar streamers. |
