I respect your opinion. everybody has different taste, but what I like about fondriest is that they have lots of options in the finish.
I just read on velo news that they will offer a custom sat painting to the customer with pictures of your choice. I think that's awsome.

so Fondriest is pushing the envelope for graphcis. They have a pretty cool system there.
Personally, I think that's less ugly than bikes that need to have a sh*tload of the same sticker over and over and over and over all over it. Especially when they are yellow and silver, yeah, that's REAL classy.

Regardless of opinion, I think you have to give Fondriest points for trying. I mean, that artwork is pretty cool, especially on a bike frame. Fact is though, most people want to ride a bike, not put it on the wall and admire the artwork on. OH yeah, fondriests are also extremely overpriced....
Just like for last year it looks like their sizing charts are still off. The Lex for instance is sized more like the TF1.....I guess they could have changed the molds for the same frame...seems unlikely though....
How emberrassing is this? Throw the most expensive product on the market (Topcarbon), sell a few to wealthy people who like nice top layer eye candy only to pull it from the market due to massive problems and return with a new evolution model only one year later. Very emberassing, very.
