    The paint scheme of the OPQS bikes is gorgeous.

    The colours on their bikes might give a clue as to the kit colours. Red, white, black, etc.

    OK sorry but I came across this and I just had to share. If you want a gander at some other beauties: http://www.buzzfeed.com/ariannarebolini/truly-upsetting-vintage-recipes?sub=2889028_2252564

    LOL.
    I guess there budget didnt extend to a design team.
    However I think Cancellara might just look great in it.

    And their bikes. Disaster. Not only are they Treks but they are black and have white spokes.

    Pin stripe cycling kit - inevitable, I suppose...

    Trek to be likened to a wunch of bankers throughout the season?

    OPQS, Trek and Sky are going to be tough to distinguish between this year.

    Depends on the helmets really - sky are quite easy to spot because of the blue stripe down the middle of theirs.

    That trek kit is rank though and they should have stuck with blue for the bikes like last year: RSLT.jpg

    At least we can assume Cancellara is getting his special colour-scheme again?

    Poor effort. Their logo is red and white, you'd think they'd at least add red to the kit somewhere.
    It's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.

    Lots of nice pictures of shiny new kit here for Drapac (an Aussie ProConti team)

    Their kit is very very very red:

    That Trek kit is poor. Kit by numbers. It looks like something I could just pick up in my LBS.

    In fact it looks really like my regular training kit.*

    There is so much black in the peloton this year. It was fine when it was just Sky because at least when it was one black kit, you knew black equaled Sky. I'm now having fond memories of the wonderful nude kit of what's its name.

    *I should add that my regular training kit does not have hideous pin stripes. Yuck.

    Now I'm quite partial to an aero road helmet. I like the ones from POC, Giro, even Kask, but that Bontager one look awful!

    Footon-Servetto. I know the Trek kit is boring, but if you're having fond memories of this... :shock:

    You're all missing the obvious management ploy in duff jersey design: there is no greater motivational tool for hyping riders up to win their national champs... And starting with Hayden Roulston in the NZ champs on Saturday, Trek have quite number in their roster of riders who could be in national champs colours come the Tour...

    Ah yes, Hayden Roulston will now be fired up to earn the right to wear a non-descript black jersey with some white bits - hang on a minute...

    That Trek kit is a disgrace. Boring, unimaginative and it doesn't even manage to pull off classily understated. I thought the MTB one yesterday was bad...

    It looks like a rubbish 80s football kit. I dislike Trek generally. This is not helping them...
