Google has supposedly had a new shipment of bikes come in. Roberto Bayardo, a Google Principal Research Scientist on Ad Quality, posted a picture to his Google+ profile. His scientific explanation on why the bikes are so ugly - "to prevent theft."
Classic!
They are pretty ugly, I would never buy a bike in this color, nor would I steal it.

Maybe that's why they are so ugly, so people don't steal them :)

They look good for getting around a Google campus and showing you're a googler, but would you really want to own one and tool around town on it? Hey, a multicolored happy rainbow bike (ching ching!)
