    All wearing national kit there.

    They allowed to put their team sponsor on their shorts, but they are still the national team shorts.

    You go by colours I go by sponsors. Trade teams have different coloured for riders with different jerseys (national champ etc).

    You see national shorts with a sponsor put on it. I see trade shorts with the colour changed to match the jersey.

    Either way, it's not worth arguing over.

    Well - it IS an internet discussion forum! Isn't everything worth arguing over? :)

    I don't think Wiggo will be wearing a British skinsuit with Garmin logos on it. I'd bet he'll be wearing the standard British skinsuit with SKY on it. As I recall - the Brits seem to stick to the standard "uniform" pretty closely - regardless of trade team.

    Seems other countries don't. Thus my error.

    That doesn't look like Wiggo to me! :oops: Seems you are correct though. I must pay greater attention in future!

    Yeah - cause that shot makes him look fat!! :)
  • Wiggins has a cutomised TT helmet which should match his BC skinsuit very nicely, and his bike

    Cancellara's bike is the Specialized Shiv. Chris McCormack is riding it at the Ironman Hawaii in a couple of weeks' time:

    Wait till you see what Faris will be riding:

    I don't know if the camera might be tilted but that looks quite a steep gradient Brad's on.
    Aspire not to have more, but to be more.

    Merely as a point of interest (because we were discussing it), Wiggins just left the start house - in generic GB team kit (with SKY all over it). But no Garmin logos on it!

    And Cancellara riding his usual red Specialized bike - not the black and gold one in this pic!
  • Has anyone else noticed how small Cancellara's TT bike always looks. Guess it is so he can crawl right over the front wheel and get really aero but it often catches my eye.

    Brad's been wearing those Bont shoes for a while but is it just me or does it look like there's an Adidas sticker on the top of them.
    I'm left handed, if that matters.

    I think at the moment there's only one size of the Shiv available - I forget where I read that though.
    I like bikes...

    Thanks, those are definitely Bont's - and it is actually just a sticker on the shoes. Funny stuff.
