    FUN and very pretty!!! Congrats!

    My Specialized came with white bar tape, and it never made it on a ride like that. Then again, I switched out the handlebars, and it didn't make it to my new handlebars. Gets dirty too quickly!

    The red accents are very nice! Enjoy!

    It was a pretty bike before the makeover, but now Lightning is smoking hot!

    I like the red. Makes it look like a new bike.

    Yeah, I hear you on the white bar tape. I was really glad that mine came with black rather than the white on Giant's website. While it would have gone better (picks up the white on the frame), I'd think it would look disgusting after a few rides.

    I'm not a red fan, but that totally works! I think you'll find changing tires a LOT easier now with the new wheels. I almost bought the wheels off my boss' new Madone until I was warned not to. Bontrager rims are notorious for being tight so things should be a lot easier now!
