I really need a community effort at this point.
After learning that Luna was no longer going to built my dream bikeand seeing my deposit refunded, I walked straight into my favourite local bike shop to get things going on a new bike. I was not gung-ho on custom, I just wanted a bike that FITS and that was made with LOVE.
So a few hours of work later, I now know that I am ordering a Gunnar Sport bike, which will fit like a glove anyway, and I am down to picking the colour. There are a few stock colour options but they are not terribly attractive, and I'm thinking about getting a custom job done. (Hey, the frame will cost half the price it was supposed to cost me, so I can afford this now.)
I have seen a few bikes with a dark red colour and white stripes recently and thought that looked really neat, so I'm thinking about something like this (see attached, don't worry too much about shades of red in the image), but I'd like to see a few other red bikes before I make my mind definitively tomorrow night.
Can you show me some red ladies? Your own bikes? Bikes you love? I'm primarily thinking about steel bikes here, which tend to have more subdued designs, but I'm open minded, as long as it's inspiring!
Thank you SO much!
