Hello Kitty bar tape?

Oh, wait. They don't make that. I just wish they did.

I'll agree with everyone else that less is better. It's a really beautiful bike! Maybe white bar tape or pale blue bar tape?

I second coloured cable housing - but stay away from Jagwire. My experience with it was horrid and it ended up in the garbage after 2 weeks. Shimano makes coloured dura-ace cable housing now!! So much better.

If you want something ultra-subtle and ultra-cheap, you can also get coloured cable end caps - pink is out there.

If you use SRAM you can also find coloured brake hoods. I'm not sure if you can do this with Shimano or not.

Hopefully I won't ened up racing against my bike twin someday ... but here is what I did to my Ordu after racing it all black the last few seasons. It now has the black Diva saddle with pink stitching but this photo was taken before I changed out the old worn out saddle. Yes, that's even a chain with pink links:

The New Specialized Wind Tunnel
Will this be a game changer for Specialized, in both sales and product design, or will it not move the sales and design needle versus those in Specialized's competitive set?
Yes, Game Changer
Minor move forward
Won't budge the needle
