This one I remember for unique but subtly beautiful paint/general aesthetic (overall bike proportions look perfect to my eyes). Not sure if owner is on this forum

Going with the Mondrian theme from above, Mariposa did one too.

I have only seen 2 examples of this paint, or this model Miyata for that matter and they both went through my garage. Both 1 size too small.

Funny, I almost went off the road while driving the other day and my wife was like *** was that? She just sighed when I said that there was a Pantani Bianchi on someone's roof. Man, I wanted that bike back in the day.

There are a few bikes that are just so iconic. Bianchi Celeste, Molteni Orange, Mapei Colnagos, USPS Treks and maybe a couple others. But you see those and you know who and what it is. And they always stand the time test.

Have to give a nod to my friends new bike. Inspiration was taken from the Ipanema beach boardwalk.

Nice. Classy, subtle and agree geometry looks perfect.

That Mondrian Mariposa is beautiful though.

Wow do I love this ti frame! Can we see a picture of the full frame?

Edit: I just meant the second frame, edited white frame image out for clarity. It does look like a Firefly to me.
