I've been dying to see a fully matte black bike with black groupset, black rear disc, and black trispoke... no logos, pure stealth. Since I can't find any pictures to show what I mean, does that make it unique?

if cervelo would sell bikes like this, i'd buy them in a heartbeat:




that's back when the soloist carbon was a prototype - nothing but matte black and the words "vroomen-white design" on it. perfection.

mile2424, the image you tried linking did not work. It says it is Protected by Owner with no image being shows. This happens a lot when you try posting images. Why not try using imageshack or tinypic or something similar to upload your picture? I would love to see what you have posted.

My favorite is the new blue triad SL. http://www.rideblue.com/triadsl.php

L-O-V-E it..just can't afford it. I'll have to settle for my 'lowly' SP.

That bike definitely looks better in person than it does in pictures.

Ignorance is bliss until they take your bliss away.

Looks like it's working now for me but just in case....

Now it's a red X.

1 more try...

The only thing that Soloist prototype needs is some BLACK bar tape.

Looks like it's working now.

I am wondering with what kind of program such graphics are possible. Are there any chaep or even free programs?

I guess these would be "unique" since I picked out the colors myself!

I dont know if its unique, but its the S-works "Saxobank" Transition.

My baby :)

Great looking bike, but do you actually ride it with the saddle tilted down that far?

OMG, that thing looks fast!! Just sitting there. I'm already faster just looking at it.

But my heart belongs to the Scott Plasma 3

I've got black nokon cables that I haven't gotten around to installing, maybe this weekend I'll do that and take a pic with the race wheels on. Also, there are now some subtle gloss black flame decals around the HT (not seen in photo). Trying to find a matte black TT ring but so far no luck.

My heart too, but the plasma 3 frame set alone cost more than TWICE the s-works transition.

Can't see the pic but I'm wicked interested now!

It's worth mentioning that the SRM is internally wired which certainly added to the difficulty of running nokons front to back for the shifters.

Nice! what frameset is that?

It's a Trek TTX which was warranty repainted after the paint developed some defects.
New paint really brought new life to the bike!

That's a nice bike!

Just wondering, how much does it cost, ball park, to have a bike painted? It must be possible to do.
Would love to..
