    all he needs is to ride it wearing that freaking Bing Crosby white tux from the Sidi adverts and he will truly look the greatest tw&t in the history of procycling

    Even more so than Gert Jan Thuenisse and his Motley Crew 'Do

    The Schleck bike is nice.

    I like the idea of customised bikes for big riders.

    Ouch! Who is that?

    The Schleck bikes are gorgeous compared to Contador's!

    I prefered his Trek. I think MY Specialized is nicer than his (see my signature). Wouldn't mind his bars, stem and seatpost though.

    I prefer Contador's to Andy's - don't like that metallic look.

    I think my Trek is nicer than any bike I've seen :D (again, see the sig.)

    Hi there.

    I've never understood the seat tube on the Tarmac - what's the point of extending the seat tube above the top tube, then putting a round seat post on top of it? Also what's the point of having a cut-out around the rear wheel, then having such a large gap between the rear wheel and the tube?

    Cheers, Andy

    I liked the old Trek design he had, not that keen on the new one, need to see a few more pics, does seem strange there is no gold on it for the Vuelta though, he has gold, pink and yellow on his helmet so thought he would use the same colour scheme.

    Hasn't the Vuelat leader's jersey been switched to red, so it's future proofed?

    I thought that was the climber's jersey? And the ciclamino in the Giro is now red IIRC? They're changing all the time tbh, with different sponsors wanting different colours.

    I think you are right there but seems strange to use red on the bike and then gold on the helmet.

    We need consistency :D
