Specialized Tricross….green or black?

Right – about to buy a Spesh Tricross Singlespeed – through the cycle to work scheme as my commute to work stead.

Since through the scheme I pay full price for either the 2008/ 2009 bike….I guess it all comes down to colour preference.

So do I choose the green 2008nullnull

Or the black 2009?

Apologies goofed up there.

Oooh – I really do not like the graphics on that 2009 model…

I’d get a RoadRat instead.
But out of those 2 the 08 is far better looking. Really dont like the white graphic on the seat tube. Spoils it.

LOVE the look of that roadrat…but is it suitable for canal paths/farm tracks?

Am open to any other cyclox alternatives…

Kona Sutra?

Cy rode one on at SSUK2007, on the Bristol BikeFest course.

Black for me – I think it looks waay better than the green and better than the Roadrat.

The green looks brilliant in the flesh – it’s kind of industrial but flashy, if you know what I mean.

Tough one – black and green are the best colours for bikes IMHO. I had the green 08 tricross single and it does look extremely nice – great bike all round, particularly good value for money.

The 2008 model is available from http://www.pearsoncycles.co.uk/%5B/url%5D at the bargain price of £275. Mine arrived yesterday!
