The colors.....

[gman0482]

Hey everyone,

On my bike's seat tube, there are 5 colored stripes, blue/red/black/yellow/green.
At first I thought that it was Felt's graphic, but then started seeing it more and more on different things in the cycling culture.
Can anyone explain the origin and/or the meaning behind the "flag" ?

Thank you,
-Greg
