BIKE EYE-CANDY! The most beautiful bikes in the world! (in my opinion)

Caveat Emptor: Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!

CONCEPT BIKE

Lotus Type 108 - The design above comes from 1987, right around the time the UCI decided to impose restrictions on bicycle designs. The bike above was deemed illegal.

 

 

SUPER BIKE

Specialized S-Works Venge McLaren - Designed in collaboration with the famous automaker, this super bike comes with an "automotive" price tag! ($20,000.00)

 

 

RACE BIKE

LOOK 695 Light - Probably a surprising selection for the most beautiful race bike, but the Piet Mondrian paint scheme makes this Architect smile!

 

 

AERO RACE BIKE

Canyon Aeroad CF-SLX - A new movement in road bike design pushing the envelope to make bikes as aerodynamic as possible. Technology + Design = German!

 

 

ENDURANCE BIKE

 

 

Trek Domane Team Edition - Endurance Road Bikes are designed for comfort over speed with long bumpy roads in mind. The Domane does that but still manages to look pretty fast!

 

 

TIME TRIAL BIKE

BMC TimeMachine TM01 - I believe that time trial bikes have to be so fast they should look weird. And this BMC is just weirdly beautiful. Looks comfortable too, eh!?

 

 

FIXED GEAR BIKE

Cinelli Vigorelli Caleido - All hipsters rejoice! No brakes, no gears and the pedals will move as long as the bike moves. For me, Cinelli has this market cornered beautifully!

 

 

HANDBUILT / CUSTOM BIKE

Baum Corretto Continental - Baum makes beautiful bikes and this partnership with Rapha is stunning; one image isn't enough as the attention to detail is amazing, so look here for more!

 

 

CLASSIC BIKE

Bianchi Rekord - quite honestly, it might've been an easy choice, but Bianchi is synonymous with vintage bicycles. And beware, the Bianchi "Celeste" color is sacred to most cyclists!

 

 

FRIEND'S BIKE

Rose Xeon "Garbien" Special Edition - let's face it, we've all had a crush on a friend's bike before!

This bike started murdered out black, but the Comic Graphics additions were a great touch!

 

 

YOUR OWN BIKE!

My Bike - Scott Foil 40 - I've had it for 3 years now, and when I look at it my heart still skips a beat at how beautiful it is! I certainly hope that every cyclist feels the same way towards their rides! And new cyclists, when it is time to purchase your first "serious" bike, make sure it's the bike your heart desires - it's ok to be picky about color, brand, etc. The more you love it, the more you will want to ride it!
