It's embarrassing when people post "look at my bike, isn't it cool?!" type pics with glaringly obvious chicken strips.

Nicely done!
Not everyone has access to a track or area where they can utilize the entire tire.

It's really funny to me since my gf is still less than a year on a bike and those tires are brand new....as in zero miles...as in I installed them and took pictures....as in I have no idea what he's talking about...

That pipe looks so out of place with all the pink

Nice bike for a girly girl, but I think the rearsets are "too much" pink. But thats IMO, who cares, etc etc.

I would imagine that it is just from seeing all of the crap that collects on my dark wheels.

My father had a car way back in the day that was white on white and man it looked killer when clean BUT white interior...what a pain in the azz and I thought to myself...NEVER for me.

He's right though... no chicken strips!

Hell, just to impress everyone, I'm only going to take bike pics when brand new, never ridden tires on.
