Ooooooh, I LIKE those! I want them on my red bike! Why oh why didn't I know about these befopre I went out and bought plain BLACK Conti GP 4000 tires...
(because the bike store would never ever have stocked them even they knew they existed. but still...)
Very nice! :)
"Hokey" and nope, looks pretty sex-ay to me ;)
I think it looks awesome! (and fast, too!)
My first road bike (a Fuji) had red tires. Admittedly, it's one of the reasons I bought the bike (boy, did I learn about fit the hard way!!) :o. But man, it looked nice with the red bar tape...
just as an FYI... Performance doesn't carry red ones, but WorldCycling does... and for a cheaper price too:DQuote:

I love the scheme of your bike and the set up..don't change a thing..I think the silver handlebar tape would take away from the sharpness of your bike..but that is just my opinion..please feel free to do as you choose..shelly
I think the handlebar tape should be red to match tires and hubs.
aren't ksyriums boot-ee-full. Easily said now that I have them too:D:D:D
ooh, Beautiful! My red Luna would look just fabulous in tires like those!
LOVE IT!! I think red bar tape would look great!! It can really make your bike look completely different to change the black. I tricked out my Cannondale with blue tape, blue tires and blue bottle cages to play on the blue in the frame so you can see what I like.
I think those red tires look great!
I am also impressed that your front wheel has a useful electrical outlet! So convenient for touring! ;) ;)
Looks cool to me!
Then again, I have a yellow and black Cervelo... with yellow and black tires on it.
:D
I just put red Conti GP4000's on my bike to go with my red bar tape. Great minds think alike.
Dang! Two gorgeous bikes! Love those tires... :D
Red and black are power colors and you have the perfect balance right there. Don't change a thing.
Sexy, indeed!
Boy, if red is hokey my orange tires and tape must be really weird. :p
I think it looks great.
Those red tires look great. I fact they look like the bike should have come with them.

I agree...it is perfection right now!!Quote:

Why oh why can't I get PURPLE tires!?! They would be so beautiful on my Dolce:(:rolleyes::( (And why didn't specialized put more purple on the bike anyway???) Oops, I guess that's getting a little off track....
Anyway - your bike looks fabulous - enjoy!

I like...I love!!!
Hurray for boyfriends!
The better to POWER up those hills!!! :DQuote:
