    My bike isn't predominantly white but there are quite a bit of white accents which brighten it up. My rear derailleur and hoods are white too. Because I keep it indoors, I wipe down with a damp cloth after every ride. I don't know how long the derailleur will stay white though, and I'd like to change out the hoods to black at some point. I like having the white on the frame itself though.

    I have a white road bike with lime green accents. It is really easy to keep clean with a quick wipe down after every ride.

    My bike is teal and clear-coated aluminum, but the underside of the downtube, bottom half of the seat tube, bottom bracket shell, and chainstays are white. Who thought that up? Those are the spots that get dirtiest, and aren't the easiest parts of the bike to clean!
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    My road bike is white with black lettering and a couple of red accents. Originally the color was something I just decided to live with (this bike only came in 2 colors and I didn't like the other one), but I've grown to like the white quite a lot. Or maybe I've just accumulated enough good memories on this bike that I like the color by association.
