Lotto Bellisol my a*se!!

Scotty-Gee

Surely it's Blanco?

doug5_10

AG2R - minus the brown bibs!!
FDJ always looks superb
I like Lotto Belisol, just looks right
Best briefly was the celeste Vacansoleil jerseys they wore at ATOC, will these make a reappearance?

White is right, black is botty-water (i.e. Sky )

Rod11

Garmin Sharp

Movistar or the vinni yellow if you have the body (i do not)

TheHound

How has no one said Lampre. You guys have no taste obviously.

Team GB Olympic jersey was quite nice

sumosprintstar

Sky or Cannondale

Lycra-Byka

Rapha condor jlt (guilty choice not a big rapha fan)
Or
Blanco (simple design and I own a Giant)

Sky is nice but I'd never own it, too popular.

Would anyone here wear a pro kit with another bike brand on it, that they don't own the same bike as?

Wouldn't wear one at all but that's just personal opinion. Rather wear my club kit or plain

This.

It's all hideously overpriced as well. I'm happy with a £30-£40 plain jersey that is comfortable and looks smart, not something costing £120+ that looks like Sky and Pinerello have thrown up all over it.

But that's just me. If this is what you like and what makes you feel good and go faster, go for it.

In principle I agree, but then I have a contact at a sponsor so get pro team kit for dirt cheap prices.

So I dress like a walking billboard, but hardly spend an money for high quality kit, but also feeling slightly guilty that I've compromised my principles.

With all that turmoil going through my mind I spend less time thinking about how much my legs hurt, so my average speed has gone up by 4.5mph.

That didn't take long.

Been a fan of the liquigas kit but the dale jersey looks bloody awful.

Between lotto, saxo and blanco for me. Sky is a bit safe.

Hmm, tricky one, that.

I don't wear pro kit, but that's more a case of there being none I really like than any principled objection. However, I do think there's a fine line between wearing pro kit and Fancy Dress, and I reckon obviously matching bike and clothing crosses that line. When there's a bit of ambiguity, such as showing up in a Saxo Tinkoff top on an S-Works Tarmac (or whatever it is they ride) then that's fine, but were I to show up on my BMC in a BMC top then that would definitely be into the realms of fancy dress and therefore a bit odd. I would fully expect a series of comments along the lines of "Who've you come as?", or "I presume you filled in that chin dimple with fat... the same stuff you've used on the rest of you".

If forced to pick one, it would probably end up as either Euskaltel, Lampre, or Vini Fantini, on the basis that at least they'd be good for visibility in the evenings. I would, however, draw the line at matching bibshorts, especially the "A*se Grapes" Vini Fantini ones... I mean, I know Italian blokes have got a certain sense of style about them that lets them get away with pretty much anything, but c'mon... shorts that scream WE'VE GOT PILES is pushing it. I half expected Santambrogio to issue a statement to the effect of "Yes, I took gallons of the stuff, and now you've caught me I don't have to wear them again... don't make me wear them! If you make me wear them again I'll touch a chicken's wee-wee and put the video on Youtube, then you'll have to ban me again!".

I really like the Sky kit but no way would I ever wear it.

I loved the Eurocar team kit from a couple of years ago - lovely green jersey. Current one is still good.
Otherwise - FDJ, Vacansoleil, Movistar and Lotto-B do it for me

I ride a giant so have a blanco,but also use a liqugas as its cool colours.

IrishMac

An Post chain reaction is by far the nicest, could be improved by getting rid of the box surround crc's logo on the front though

I quite like the Sky kit. I'd wear it. I've waited over 30 years for GB to have a proper pro team. I'm happy to wear the colours.

Schobiedoo

Team Columbia shirt for me

ednino

Used to like the old columbia htc highroad kit

but currently it has to be Cannondale pro cycling or Orica Greenedge
