    LOL! But isn't "fresh confidence" a good thing to have on a bike?

    I wonder if it has a gel seat?

    I did notice the Six13 for women seems to have been designed off a thread against women's bikes here. Mostly black with a hint of girly colors but not bathed in pepto.

    I didn't mind the bike so much, but with the toothpaste it's hilarious.

    Ick - I don't like it at all!

    In fact, when I first looked at it, it reminded me of something other than toothpaste but after seeing the colgate box, I can't think of anything else now!

    My first thought was, "how many times do they have to scream CANNONDALE on it?". I hate those huge logos. I spend a lot of time taking stickers and decals off of my wheels and parts. Then the toothpaste made me laugh. How perfect. Tacky advertising just like on a toothpaste box!

    The colors are wrong but you could always buy the bike and get this kit:

    or you could make your own Colgate decals and switch. That would be a hoot

    I think it's aight

    I'd do some customizing, of course.

    We bought Cyclingnews.com's gear guide and this bike is in it. I showed it to DH and he also thought toothpaste, although he did study it for awhile. He thinks it probably doesn't look too bad in person, unfortunately we do not have any large Cannondale shops in town that would have it for us to really judge.
