Thanks everybody for helping me accessorize my bike! In the end, I decided to go with a white Specialized Jett saddle, and pink Bontrager cork gel handlebar tape. The saddle has some accents of light pink on it. Call me fashion challenged, but I love it! (Also, I am still waiting for the white handlebar tape to come in).
Say hi to Zulu!

She's gorgeous!!!
You must be thrilled.
Does the cork handlebar tape have speckles in it? If so, I had that kind until a month ago and it stayed cleaner longer (or appeared to anyways). My LBS didn't have that option when I had them put new tape on. It's just plain pink and gets dirty much faster. (Remember that if you switch to white.)
Congrats on Zulu. You and she will have many good times together!

I really love the white saddle as it adds a nice accent of color to your bike.
White is also feminine in nature and it just completes the look. Your bike is so very nice and it will definitely turn a few heads.
Keep some Soft Scrub on hand as it will clean your handlebar tape and keep it looking like new.

Jiffer - Yup, the cork handlebar tape with the speckles on it.
By the way Jiffer, were you riding on the Santa Ana Trail today? I saw a Cannondale exactly like yours...pink handlebar tape, pink saddle...at the rest stop over by the ocean. Was that you?
