Sizing and seat selection is more important than color even! I can remember a year or so before the 1984 LA olympics, the university of Pennsylvania spent thousands on a lot of bike testing so our cyclist would win some gold metals and not get stomped by the europeans (Italians mainly) and after all their testing found that all the rules for bike sizing the pros (Italians) had been using all along were right on! As a matter of fact I was cleaning the garage the other night and dusted off the set of magnesium rims with Campy SR hubs I got from Davis Phinney of the old 7-11 cycle team in 1984 after the road race. Being president of the LaJolla cycling club (long defunct) did have some advantages!
