Found a bike that fits me...

It's lavender or lilac or something in the purply range...

Just checked it out at the Giant site, and I think it is gorgeous! Reminds me of a lavender Terry Classic I once test rode.

But then, I am a girly girl. My road bike is "lupine" (kind of a black raspberry), and I just like that kind of color. I also have a white Bike Friday (color chosen by me because I love white bikes, though they sure do show dirt and grease quickly!), and my new silver (aluminum) mtb with pretty blue front fork. My only "boy-colored" bike is my green and silver Novara Bonita mtb (WSD).

For me, color comes behind fit, components, and weight, but it is a consideration. There are some colors I just wouldn't buy (mostly dark colors like black or brown).

Maybe you can compare the geometry of the OCR-1 to some other models/manufacturers and thus find something else that fits equally well?

Good luck!
