. I think I'm with you Guth... it's not 'clean'. The original logo was excellent, whoever designed it did an excellent job. In the new one, the white one looks too much like an add-on and it muddy's up the look. I never really noticed what the red one was doing, but it's clearly moving forward, kind of pulling along or coming out of the name. Perhaps you could move it to the right, keep its prominence as the 'grand-daddy', but have it be dragging out a much less prominent new one. If you kept the new one moving to the right, you'd lose showing the left side... showing that difference, but it would be cleaner. Or perhaps you can show the new one heading in the other direction in order to show the other side. But then again, since we read left to right, that might look odd too, in a different sort of way. I'm not sure what your limitations are, artistically, but it's worth playing with. I'd vote (and you didn't ask for my vote...) to keep it simple, clean, and elegant... like the bike.
