That last pic makes it look like a ghastly R1...

I sat on the new 'Blade at the London bike show and it was very small.
I also saw the new R1 and it is very ugly! What were they thinking with that red frame?!?

Yep - I like small

I agree about the use of red but colours aside, the bike is a demon!

Very thin plastic on the Blade though, some of my mates have been holed as well as stone a split rads.

I don't think either the R1 or Blade looks good in road trim - but track trim ... mmmm
