HDR created and tonemapped in qtpfsgui from three exposures.
I'm not really a big fan of HDR - this is the first one that I tried myself. I was quite pleased with the outcome and very happy with the votes!

Nice bike. Not sure HDR did anything for you here, but I see the shadows may have been dark in the bright sunlight. And, you did bring up detail there. The sky gradient aberrations are a distraction to an otherwise beautiful bike.
Efing amazing. Best i've seen so far, instant 8/10 The only thing I would think about changing is that the crop is a little tight on the bottom. Your not all the way into the tire but you've got no white space below it either. That brigns this to an 8/10
Excellent deep DOF on this and HDR really shows off the details well! A bit of a shadow created at the cables on the handlebar (I'm sure there's a way to fix that if you want) but a great subject for the challenge and a perfect setting to match the colors.
great detail, has a little washed out feel but not much (more apparent in the thumbnail than this size, perchance full screen this photo will look even better)
