OK ladies and gents, please bear with me on this one.

I am building a road bike, wow i hear you all shout. Well me being a total pin head, and now back into my first love (cycling that is) i want to build a real carbon road animal. I do not have any significant other half to say i can not spend £40 on a carbon bottle cage, so this is going to be a racing animal needed, (yes really needed) for my sportives.

It looks like i am buying a Trek carbon frame, and i am going full carbon components and UCI illegal in getting the whole bike under 7Kgs.

Now the dilemma and question. I am a lucky old chap and love my job, and i am doing a lot of charity rides, sponsored by my company. So i want to refelct this in the decals i will be getting made for the bike.

Our generic logo is a Bee, so i thought of a black frame with yellow stripes, and the tranfer of "THE BEEST" on the top tube and down tube.

Can anyone come up with anything else, i am all ears and open to suggestions.

    How about instead of a name, you make a sticker of the logo?

    It think this one below would be appropriate!

    Can't think of a name right now, but how about painting yellow and black concentric circles on the wheel/spokes?

    I like Fast Buzztard but i do work for a large nursery chain, so unfortunately not so appropriate, but it made me smile.

    I will of course be equipping the steed with yellow handlebar tape, yellow saddle, yellow tyres to match the black carbon frame and components.

    Keep them coming please!
