I think it's just a 'red' thing, Min. Red bikes and red cars seem to start heading for pink as soon as they leave the crate and enter this UV-ray-infested World.
I had a red car and later had a pink car. It was one car. I didn't paint it.
Having said that, Min, one year does sound extremely quick for the inevitable 'fade to pink' (and the brittleness). Do you park the bike in a solarium?
