I was just wondering how many people have the black iBike vs. the white iBike and reasons why?
thanks

White - because it'll show up on a magazine cover and people will ask what the heck THAT is.
Re: iBike color
I now have one white and one black.
I wonder if I might best use the black in the winter as the unit warming more from
exposure to sunlight, should extend cold weather battery life a teeny bit.
I wonder if I might best use the white unit in the summer as it sitting in the sunlight
will remain much cooler than the black unit, thus possibly extending it's service life
do to less thermal stress.
Guess in the spring and fall I can color coordinate .

Re: iBike color
If you are standing still the solar effect might be a factor. But while moving at any speed, the wind passing through and over the unit will negate any changes in temperature because of the color. And that's as scientific as I get.
