Specialized has ended relations with Quickstep and now Quickstep will ride Merckx next season.

I have to admit that i didn't see it coming. But I think it will be good to have Merckx bikes back in the Protour.
Do you have any Therapeutic Use Exemptions?
No. Never have.
Never? What about the cortisone?
Well, obviously there was the cortisone

    Shouldn't that be Quickstep ride Merckx?
    Carlsberg don't make cycle clothing, but if they did it would probably still not be as good as Assos
  • Thanks, it has been corrected. :lol:

    They aren't really Merckx tho'. He sold the name when he sold the brand. Looks like Specialized are moving their cash to Astana/Contador
