    The article you refer to was written a couple of years ago not long after Legend was set up. The most recent magazine article has Bertoletti clearly stating he does not do this any more and started Legend to get away from this type of work. Just because you write "Fact" after out of date info does not make it true today. (As an aside the ProCycling article was particularly good, especially as it was Wurst's own bike that he had ordered)

    So thats it. I am moving on as you clearly do not know what you are talking about and cannot back any of it up. I was genuinely interested in the info you provided but hey ho life is ful of disapointments.
    Perhaps crankbrother summed it up better than me.

    I don't know when Marco stopped making bikes for the peloton. I never claimed the article was up to date. The FACT I was referring to was that he made bikes for pro teams. That's all.

    As for the assumption of Moviestar riders . I have explained that.

    I apologise if you felt miss lead. It was not my intention.

    Yeah, that's probably the best looking Cipollini I've seen - although the seat tube cutout annoys me a bit - would look better if it followed the wheel a bit tighter.

    Would be easy to find at the cafe stop too!
    I'm left handed, if that matters.
  • AWFUL bar tape though ... I know it sounds picky but when the bike itself looks that good, when something ain't quite right it sticks out 1.61 km's ...

    Chainset looks a bit odd, or is that just because the big ring is asymmetric and the inner ring is round?

    Looks like a super-compact or something.
  • Looks a bit like this to me...

    Yeah is it Prologo? It's quite obnoxious, I've seen it on a few of the pro bikes. I suppose it's more to advertise it otherwise you wouldn't know who's it was but it isn't pretty.
  • Looks fabulous:

    Merida have done a good job with that colour scheme on the bike, and the white shorts don't look as terrible whilst riding as I had expected

    Are these photos where you can read the wheel logos of rotating wheels taken with a really high shutter speed, or are they photoshops?
    Red bikes are the fastest.

  • ^They are his new shoes. How much do you think Sidi paid to have the WC racing on Sidis...
