Attributes of a Bliss bicycle for a highly successful bicycle manufacturing business...

~ aluminium frame

~ straight suspension forks in the case of a mountain or hybrid bicycle and straight rigid forks in the case of a road bicycle

~ all tubes in the frame should be straight unless there are compelling reasons for tubes in the frame to not be straight (e.g. the tubes around the rear wheel, being the seat stays and chain stays)

~ top tube should be sloping downwards towards the rear of the bicycle but not a lot, just enough

~ v-brakes in the case of a mountain or hybrid bicycle and rim brakes in the case of a road bicycle, NOT disc brakes under any circumstances whatsoever, which are abominations

~ 700c wheels with stainless steel spokes

~ optional front and rear plastic mudguards supplied with the bicycle as original equipment, rather than purchased by the customer as an aftermarket accessory, which are black in colour and match the outer curve of the front and rear wheels and tyres

~ optional rear rack supplied with the bicycle as original equipment, rather than purchased by the customer as an aftermarket accessory

~ mounting points for optional rear rack on the frame at least about 5 cm higher than the top of the rear wheel and tyre, in order to provide space for the rear plastic mudguard, so that the struts attaching the rear rack to the frame, which struts should be stainless steel, are horizontal like the top surface of the optional rear rack

~ single colour for forks, frame and optional rear rack, not multiple colours like a hyperactive five-year-old child would prefer

~ no zany graphics on the forks, frame and rear rack, unless you are trying to sell bicycles to people with personality disorders

~ logo of the bicycle displayed on the front of the head tube of the bicycle at the front of the bicycle

~ brand name of the bicycle (i.e. bliss) displayed on both sides of the sloping down tube

Do not display the brand name of the bicycle (i.e. bliss) on the tyres, wheels, forks or any other component of the bicycle.

~ model name of the bicycle displayed on both sides of the top tube near the seat tube

~ material out of which the frame is constructed displayed on the seat tube, obviously facing forward, near the top

~ size of the frame displayed on the seat tube, obviously facing forward, in the middle

~ country in which the bicycle has been manufactured displayed on the seat tube, obviously facing forward, at the bottom

~ four (4) coats of clear coat on the forks, frame and optional rear rack, in order to ensure the durability of the paint on the forks, frame and optional rear rack

~ Do NOT use ANY bicycle components whose metal parts have been painted black (e.g. hubs, quick release levers, crankset, brake calipers, handlebars, stem, headset, seat post).

~ the seat, which is obviously not metal, can be black

~ the tyres, which are obviously not metal, should be black without any stripes on their sides (e.g. white stripes) apart from reflective stripes for the sake of visibility at night and should display their brand name and model name tastefully once on each side at the same point on the circumference of the tyre, so that this brand name and model name can be oriented with the valve of the tube of the tyre as a helpful visual aid for locating the valve of the tube of the tyre when inflating the tyre

~ plastic toe clips, which are obviously not metal, can be black and should be used for the convenience of the rider of the bicycle

~ the two brake outer cables and two gear outer cables, which are obviously not metal on the outside, should not be black but mid-gray, so that they are inconspicuous

~ no plastic guard between the cassette of the rear wheel and the spokes of the rear wheel, in order to save customers the time it takes to remove such a plastic guard with pliers by twisting it until it breaks apart

~ plastic reflectors attached to the front of the handlebars, the rear of the seat post and the spokes of the wheels, in order to helpfully improve visibility and safety at night, which customers can decide to remove, on account of using front and rear lights
