    You rock, FBG!!

    I can't believe it! I saw that contest on the Trek website not long ago and thought how cool it would be to design a bike, but the contest had just ended so I was too late. I am SO psyched for you. And that is one sweet design, I must say! I see a new career possibility for you ...

    The same happened to me. It would be completely awesome to design a bike. Good luck to everyone NEXT year. That is if it's an annual contest...

    I believe she said it is an annual contest. Is it always about designing a female design, or open to anything?

    Absolutely beautiful work! The LBS that I'm loyal to is trying to get permission to sell Trek's in his store. I think I'll start saving now for a bike with your design on it.

    That's gorgeous!

    How did you do it? Did you draw it yourself?

    I downloaded a file of the black line drawing, brought it into Adobe Illustrator, and did the work on the computer. (I'm a graphic designer by trade).

    Congratulations

    How cool!
    I love the art work. Definitely cool, but not too girly like many of the wsd bikes.
    You'll definitely have to post pics of your bike when you get it!

    WOW! Is all I can say! Congratulations!!! It is absolutely beautiful and it's about time they start putting girly colors on bikes!!!

    Just think of how it's going to feel when you go riding and see someone else riding one of those bikes. You can tell them YOU DESIGNED IT!!!!!

    WOW - what an incredibly beautiful bike - especially for a mountain bike. I'm not a fan of pink on bikes but this one works.

    I'm assuming Trek now owes the rights to use your design on their bikes. I'll start watching for all the Fatbottomedgurl bikes. I'm sure this will be truly popular design. And you get the first one - CONGRATS!!!!
