Try looking them in the eye, balling up your fists and snarling, "What the hell's that supposed to mean?"

They'll stop complimenting the bike and you won't be uncomfortable any more.

I had a meteric bike pull up to me awhile ago and say, "Hey, nice bike!" I said, "thanks". He kept looking at me waiting for me to complement back. It never happened. DOH!
