All hail the cyclist

I love these cycle frame designs by Devin Leggett, featured on Design*Sponge the other day. Fantastic idea.

I've long wondered why most cycle designers gravitate toward black and grey for the frames and accompanying accessories, such as paniers and seats. (Yes, yes, my bike is black).

If you're a cyclist, as I am, wouldn't a sharp hit of colour and pattern like this surely make your morning slog (esp through London's grey, rainy streets!) a heck of a lot more fun?

Jennifer - We toured the Trek bicycle factory in S. Wisconsin and saw several really cool custom painted frames there. It was so cool, and yes, almost revolutionary. So much potential along those tubes!
