Gentle Readers (thank you Mr. King) Enough already. Argue about the ride, Argue about the head tube extension and sizing, but to argue the aesthics is well, pointless. I happen to prefer swoopy curvy lugs, I like the organic feel of Art Nouveau over the man made feel of Art Deco (and that's not to say I don't like Art Deco). Its a matter of personal preference. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and doesn't that sum things up nicely? speaking of which, I like the barber pole look but I have to admit it took a while for it to grow on me. I have one bike with that motief which can be seen on my wool jersey gallery. http://www.wooljersey.com/gallery/album200

and Brandon, just a warning you might want to cover your eyes. . .
