Many Squid bikes come unpainted, and they encourage riders to spray paint their frames and then thrash them hard. Or, if you want it to look a bit more polished, you can get them "sprayed-n-ready" like this fixed-gear SO-EZ. Either way, no two Squid bikes will look the same, and that's just part of what makes them special. There's the attitude too. Take this SO-EZ for example. It's a "tracklocross" bike. Riding fixed and brakeless in the dirt is something reserved only for the most punk rock of cyclists. Fancy, expensive tech? Conformity? Screw that. This is a different way to ride, and different is cool.
