Isn't it disrespectful to the national jersey? Shouldn't the current jersey be more important?

If it were one of the FdJ guys I wouldn't imagine Madiot letting them have the extra stripes :shock:

Eh? The National jersey should never be more important than the World Champion stripes. As a number of other posters have said, he's entitled to wear them for as long as he continues to compete. Good for him I say - he looks f*cking awesome in the jersey. It doesn't have to be a case of either/or...

And how come he only gets fizik on his ass rather than snake/bull etc?

His new national champ shorts haven't arrived yet?

Pretty sure I've seen a shot of him with ones with "bull" on them somewhere

Seriously just stop with the aero helmets!

That white kit just looks so cool.

I think the WC kit should be worn with black shorts myself, looks much better.

Sagan's Hulk Cannondale.

Vacansoleil Bianchi
Nice collars and cuffs (except for the red on cranks).



Hope there aren't too many wet days for the sake of that Di2 battery.

Wonder if any of the Radioshack riders will be using the Limited Edition R320 Shimano shoe?

I really like Chavanel's new bike:



A 34th birthday present from specialized its the same colour as his car.

Second thoughts after more photos on Alberto's ride and I dont think its that good:

Sagan's scheme is glow in the dark so may look good in the final stage:


Greipel's kit and a new sponsor by the looks of it:

Fashion disaster from Contador. Pudding bowl helmet, a kit that seems to have got messy recently and then a complete change of tack with the bike and shoes.

Who likes this kit? Superb. That is how you do a Nat Champ kit.

FF what did you think of the EBH nationals kit last year? The Ralpha one

frenchfighter

It was ok but nothing on this one. I like symmetry also and EBH's one just had a big SKY slapped on the front and the flag had to find a way round it.

How can you wear these glasses and actually come to race?!

That is nice - good and clean. The contrasting shorts is nice too - I don't like when everything is one colour. Cavs looks good because of that too - just classic.

Same with the yellow jersey - I'm not a fan of the all yellow look - some accents are fine but you don't need to be head to toe.

Specialized must be laughing themselves to the bank with their Evade aero helmet. Surely they're going to make a mint, seeing as theirs is just about the only one that looks even halfway decent?

Saying that, one of my mates is desperate for an Air Attack, but he's a trackie so can't be helped.

Edit: Saying that, Spesh really need to tone it down with the feature bikes though. I don't care if you're Contador, Cav or Chav, you get a team issue bike or you lump it, sonny jim. At the very least coordinate them with the team colours!
