My new Felt FW3 came with the white and I would NEVER choose it. I will try to clean it up (though it is not too bad yet, even with 500 miles) I think that I will do what most sane people would do ...use it until it is worn out and then replace. I am all for a greener environment and would not think of replacing it just to get rid of the white. I will "use it up" before I replace it!

Thanks for all the help.
