+1 This is my nomination. The color. The dirt left behind from the the ride. The background which makes it all pop. I love it! What a machine.

It’s nice but I’m pretty sure no stock photos was stated in the nomination criteria.
You may have to find a picture of one in the wild and post it.

I actually like the machine shop backdrop. And the lighting could work well to if everything was framed and set up properly, and the bike was stood off the background a little...pics taken when a moderately wide tele with large aperture for subject isolation.

This one has my vote for Best backdrop - is that a thing?

Nice bike too Smile

I agree with the photo stuff you said!
Some killer backdrops this year, going to be a tough vote........lol!!

Clearly the rest of us need to up out backdrop game.


Can I change my nomination to this? Those new pics moved it to 1st in my book.[/Quote]

From what original nomination??

Spreadsheet updated to this post except this change.

So how much does the frame mystic play into the sexy-ness of bikes for you folks? What really makes it a over all sexy build?

Uniqueness of frame or build kit and rare parts? Color choices? How functional it is?

Trying to gauge how my main stream frame with OEM wheels is going to go over.. ha

Mixed bag here. Some are gear queers, some love function, some love just the frame itself and ignore the build. That's what makes it so rad, all of the opinions from the last year or so get smashed together and we get to see what wins.

For me it's a balance between them all. Not really sure what my nomination will be, there's been some absolutely gorgeous competition!
