I can appreciate spending money to make the bike look better but I just don’t understand spending loads of cash on a bike that is destined to be a slow bike, why not just buy a faster bike in the first place?
a) it's a hobby
b) who the hell cares what it looks like. I certainly wouldn't spend money on that.
