Except to say go see Craig again I have no comment on fit. I don't know enough about that.

Paint...a good friend got a Tetra and wanted opaque paint. I thought it was a dumb idea...it is a gorgeous bike and he has been very happy and would get it repainted the same way. I was shocked at how much I liked it. My two are clear and nude. Another friend had one painted the "clear" blue (the blue version of cabernet red) that shows the weave in bright light. After the bike was wrecked on a car rack he had opaque paint based on seeing the bike of the person above. He had his painted like his DeRosa. He is happier. I had Cabernet Red. It is very dark like a burgundy wine. The weave only really shows well in bright light. Like nude you either like it or not. When I got my Luna refinished I had it made clear and I never regretted it. The botton line...it is purely personal. Go with your instinct and gut feeling and don't worry what anyone else thinks. It is your ride. Also look in the gallery slowly and carefully.

PLUS when you visit Calfee for advice on fitting you will see some others!
