Each to their own, but how can anyone describe this as an ugly bike.

Overstyled.

Matt black finish and removal of all showy stickers and I could live with it.

My Pinarello looks pretty hot!

Guy I know has a Dogma 2, in the black-on-black scheme, with nicely-matching Zipp 404s on it...looks fantastic.

Hot - they look like someone left a mould in the fire and they started melting. Other than the branding and the fact that Team SKY ride them I've never seen the appeal. There are some much nicer looking bikes out there for that sort of money IMHO.

I know they're loved by many. I just don't like them. I don't like the wobbly bits.

There's one of these at Westfield Stratford. I have to say the staff were very pleasant, even happily let some chap take a piccie of the 12k superbike

Don't do anything for me styling wise either, not actually sure what I would choose if I had silly money - wouldn't be multi coloured/lairy and certainly wouldn't be black (zzz)

Love my Dogma, but each to their own. I personally hate the Specialized bikes with their really angled top tubes. The bike I do think is really sexy is the Ridley Noah Fast FB, but I can only dream of buying that one (£11K):

This is how I like my bikes to look. Not necessarily the colour scheme below, but the shape.

I also think that both the Chain, and Seat stays on the CAAD10 are beautiful. Nowt to look at here, but up close and personal they're asthetically pleasing.

We clearly have very different taste in bikes because IMO that looks awful. Agree re. Specialized on the most part though!

I do love the Cannondale aesthetic, simple, clean and smooth! Oh and a near level or level top tube! But the paint jobs (design wise, not application wise) and decal's can either be a bit over the top or a bit drab (btw, I am an owner of 2 Cannondale bikes so my qualm is minor).

Truly a thing of beauty

I think the Cannondale is the best on this page - lovely bike

As has been said though, each of us likes different bikes, so vive la différence!

Personally I find Wilier bikes more pretty than any Pinarello, such as this one.

I love the Pinarellos although I can't fit on them so have a trek. The clothing is outrageous though, the assos tops int eh Westfield shop are £350!

I'd want mine to be put onto me by a dusky blonde with her teeth
