Could be both. It depends on what you like.
I like my Hawai'ian shirts, and my wife and kids, look at me like I am a freak too.

Follow your bliss!! ;-)

I like the idea doing some sort of customizing to your bike. Especially if it looks like mine, plain white. Throw some "bling" (or color) on that bad boy!!!!

Good point about white. I'm also thinking about yellow, but don't want to be a yellow jersey dork.

I've got an orange IM jersey that would look wonderfully obnoxious with green hoods. Hmmm....

I often think about adding yellow accents to match my PowerTap computer ;) But right now most of my riding gear (and my other bike) are black and red. I think the hood covers look fun :)

Neon? ummm, no.
Neon says i couldn't come up with a good color scheme so I vomited on the bike so people would notice. (few people can pull it off well)

The bike is your base color. Pick an accent color for the bars, seat, and cages; don't overdo it; and go with it.

The bike is a boring dark gray, perhaps a "silvery gray". It's not a terribly fancy bike (Allez) but it is the one I have. So bright colors would pop on this dull backgorund... I think.

My tri bike is much nicer, red, and it's getting white bar tape to match the white accents it already has. I'd rather 'accent' it with a pair fo H3's but my stim check went to the diaper fund.

I'm sure some kid in a middle school art class could figure this out.

Dark gray Allez? I like my red one. Definitely needs some color in there. I wouldn't just go neon, I'd go LIGHTED! A small battery pack and some EL wire along all the cables and you're good to go :-)

so the lack of what's tying it together is what's tying it together? ;)

[sigh, i miss school: the all-nighters and the subsequently goofy ideas you draw up and then wonder about during the light of day!]

Maybe I should draw up a Mapei one... ;)

Wow and I thought my all white bike, white seat, white water bottles, white cages, looked wierd.

The only color that i have are black rims, black tires, black hoods, and then to tough it off. Star Spangled handle bar tape. Hard to miss my mount anywhere with the tape. Didn't like it at first, but it has added character.

Umm... sure you can. But is your Crank set-up to be a 10-speed? There is different spacing between the chainrings for a 10 speed and 9 speed drivetrain. You are going to need a new RD as well...

Will a 9-speed cassette not fit on a 10 speed wheel? Powertap is on it's way out along with the internet anyway. I'd steer clear.

I would definitely go with changing the cassette. It takes about 5 minutes, and if you get a spacer for when you have the 9-speed cassette on there, you should be set.

Nice. From their description "This is the newest generation of GLOW in the dark paint. It is the best available with the longest GLOW time on the market."

What they don't tell you ... If you experience glowing lasting more than 4 hours you should consult your doctor.

Do no taunt Happy Fun Bike?
