I'm one of those guys who really doesn't care what my bike looks like (a
colgate R12s proves that point) as long as it is clean and cared for. Once I'm sitting on it I don't have to look at it. That's the other guy's problem and their opinion means little to me in this regard.
What I really care about is how it
feels when I ride it. That's why I bought the R12s and that's why I'll withhold comments about these until I ride one - other than to say they look interesting.
Yeah, the looks of the R12s are growing on me. Not because it's a stylistic icon

but because of the experience it represents

.
