Well, I vote for KeithA's white Legend and any of the 7/11 CSi bikes. I'm currently having my CSi repainted in 7/11 Team colors but with a few tiny tweaks. I'm not aiming to replicate the original or "get it right," I'm aiming to honor that design, add a few details, put it yet another way. Since Andy H. was on that Team, he and his brother are the major players in designing the paint and decals arrangements.

I love white bikes and once had a CSi that was Frost white with blue decals. It was beyond beautiful. Perhaps again on some other bikes.

Most beautiful bikes? When DBRK and I rode the 7-11 bikes (mine being the ti version), and DBRK riding my old, now Tom's CSI (with TDF lugs) version on the beach. A group of us rode that day. We stopped at a cafe for lunch and just seeing the bikes alongside each other was a sight to see.....

I second that, after the thread last year on white bikes I decided to have my CIII done in white with black trim. very classy looking imo.

I love Kahuna's, and I've also seen the same thing done in black & white and that was one mean looking machine. Looks-fast-standing-still mean. Ouch.

Two of the most gorgeous Serotta's I've ever seen.
Don't forget, Russ/Headwind used to ride this sweetheart:

I think Russ wins, for having not one, but *two* of the most beautiful Serotta's ever posted to the forum.

I bought a used CSI with steel fork in that combo last year and I agree completely.
