    Lance might have grounds for grievance. After all, Bosch is no Michele Ferrari...

    Lots of photos of the Tinkoff kit:

    I like it a lot - side view is the best. The front yellow panel on the short I dont like though. Cant wait to see Contador race as he has a great season mapped out.

    They had a poll on Facebook yesterday, black or white bar tape.

    I say, black for show, white for a pro.

    (Because pro's can get their bar tape changed after every race so it doesn't look dirty and horrible unlike us mere mortals)...

    Where are all these riders getting the all white s-works road shoes from?

    I can only ever seem to find red/white....

    They're pro issues ones. I guess they made them all white so they don't clash with anyone's kit or sponsors.

    Clearly not trickled down to Saxo then...
    I'm left handed, if that matters.

    I have to say I don't mind the Saxo outfit at all.

    Its bright and nice and a bit different to many of the others. Bike is a nice colour too.

    Lotto my fave though and the only one I would consider getting.

    Exactly, someone needs to get the memo to them to stop that hideous clash of blue and yellow with red and white!

    They can't even decide on the bike graphics. I'm sure that's three different schemes I've seen.

    Saxo wear the Red ones since they are sponsored by Specialized... so specialized want them to 1) stand out, and 2) look the same as the version that we can buy in the shops.

    Never mind the colour of the tape, I wish someone would straighten out the that top tube.

    Is it just me or is that seat a very long way back? Is it showing how new I am to comment that it's practically over the back axle??

    pros ride smaller frames so they can get a bigger saddle-bar drop than normal people.. so that requires the saddled to be pushed further back to get an equivalent position.
