Road bikes.
I read Rouleur and want to own every bike in it.
I read Privateer/STW and think that the bikes look like they'd be good for riding certain terrain but there's not much of an emotional reaction.

MTBs are just functional, don't look 'beautiful' in the same way as a nice road bike IMO!
Can't see me buying one as they're obscenely expensive for such a weighty frame, but I still really like the Prince (the Dogma just doesn't look as good!):

Look bikes for me.
Road:
Mountain Bike:
The mountain bike is certainly a love/ hate bike. It's an ugly bike but for some reason I love it. The 695 is stunning in the flesh too.

Jeez, those road bikes are awful looking. What's with the wavy forks and frame? They look like Fido Dido's hair... The Orange Five is the nicest looker so far, and that is horrendous.

RACE bike??
Without a doubt it would be a Cannondale.

The orange carbon Niner Air9s with the rigid forks is one bike that makes my trousers tingle:
One brand I don't get the aesthetic appeal of at all is Pinarello. Horrible, gaudy-looking, over-designed things, the lot of 'em.

Without a doubt, it wouldn't have a Lefty if it was.

Can't paste the pic directly (flash website) but this beauty

Agree about the Pinarellos, they're gopping, even in the flesh. I've been in a room with about 15 of the Team Sky bikes and what must have been close to £50,000 of wheels but it was just "meh, so what". I suspect if I posted that on the Team Sky Facebook page, all the fans would shoot me down in flames.

impossible to say for sure, but this is very pretty:

Pinarellos not only ming, each frame weighs as much as a small elephant.
Speedvagen win for me, good looking but steel so not really race bikes.

1990 Colnago Master Olympic
Just looks right to me, but love the copper track bike and this 1931 Brennan
There's a great bike shop and museum on Bainbridge Island, Seattle. Well worth the ferry ride across from the city
