Black.
Simple and chic.
Red one looks less serious....

Agree. The recent picture of the Specialized Tarmac looks OK. Except for the yellow on the seatpost and the pea green near the headtube. Maybe change those colors and it would be a great looking bike. The small color patches complement the black frame and white decals.

Totally with you on the seatpost. K-Force is a mighty expensive way to look cheap.

Thank for the comments. Between those several frames, these are the two frames that are still on my list.
I don’t take the Sagan frame because it is not in production
The black on black, there arre 1001 such frames

I'll choose red one but I think most important thing is beautiful when owner sees his bike

The red one is with de LBS where I could fit my rims on it. That is size 56. I need size 52 and I think in that size he will look much sporty, nicer

It is the red one I bought.
Here is a teaser pic with the rims. Now I'm waiting for the aerofly handlebar.
The thing you don't see is the Sworks Power saddle on the seatpost.

I'd go black, but that is because I like things kind of boring. Also, I've noticed that a lot of the bright red Specialized bikes end up looking kind of orange in person.
