I know it may be considered hipster to like a lot of certain aspects or avenues of bike design such as no stickers, no bar tape etc. However I have to put my hands up and say I actually like the aesthetic, I don't really have any friends that ride and I'm not trying to fit into some hipster clique but by my own volition my bike appears as what many would call hipster...however I just happen to like it like that...equal to that I think you have to consider that the anti-hipster brigade has gotten to a stage of anti-hipsterism that they themselves are making as big an effort to avoid conforming to an image which is essentially what they are berating the hipsters for doing...
Oh and I think if you really look at the above bike it has some beautiful clutter free lines, no stickers anywhere else which gives it a super clean tidy look and to be honest I tink the stickers upset the look of this bike and that it would be far tastier without them... :D
