Lisa, this bike was about as close to "sweety" green as I could get. Do you remember how I fell in love with your husband's bike and you just laughed and told me the story?

Dex: True, this bike was in two colors in 2008: tan and black, and I orginally ordered the black, then changed my mind and changed it to tan and then I found out that the 2009s were only available in green. It's the color I really wanted, like the single speed that Bluetree has. It's a little darker than the pictures indicate. A rich metallic olive. The 3 speed is still white.

Mimi: I've seen pros and cons to those fenders. I feel a physics experiment coming on...

Tim: No problem. I love it when I get great customer service, beginning with you personally helping me find a dealer and they kept calling and touching base with me, and letting me know exactly where it all stood. Right back at you with the thanks.
