I really don't like how modern road bikes are decorated/painted.

Sorry but I'm loving my Cube Deco

That's a nice looking bike

....Just a pity about the evil, gratuitously gawdy writing and capitalist branding all over it!!


I do like Ffoeg's green bike posted earlier though.

Green is a wonderful colour for a bike

Horrendous

Horrendous

It's the same colour as our MyCyclingLog tickers.

Al.. I am shocked mate...

Although the backdrop of grass and red brickwork is a class touch!

I think sometimes it is overdone, such as on some of Trek's models. Do we really need 'Trek' painted large three times on both sides of the frame? Other than that I have no problem with manufacturer's names etc on them, if the kit's good then that's all that matters.

I have always been rather fond of this - subtle but with some colour

Do like my Pave though

You are all talking rubbish of course, this is quite possibly the sexiest bike on the planet......

Sorry but that is just tacky.

Of modern road bikes Kona get somewhere near as far as decal and paint.

Mind it's all down to personal choice at the end of the day.

I like what Kona have done as to colour schemes and logos etc. Not too shouty.

Of course it's personal preference, but I agree with the OP. While riding my Giant near the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, ( home of the Brickyard 400 ), I was approached by three NASCAR drivers, saying they were jealous of my decals! ( just kidding )

Like this De Rosa 'team' too, flat pain works a treat.
