Am I the only one who thinks Team Wiggins looks a bit rag tag now... I am sure its supply and there will be more uniformity as the season goes on, but considering their jersey was a classic and iconic template, it's not that nice.

looks average.

It looks better when they're all wearing the same thing.

It's still a little superhero though.

Black shorts though. Like they should be.

Paul 8v

Or I assume they will be black shorts judging by the tights.

Proper glasses. Hope they bring back the original Stingers - still got a pair that get an occasional outing. The recent 'redesigned' Stinger is crap.

Frankly, I'm speechless. What are these things? And I've not even mentioned those pants yet. Bloody Kenyans.

I have a set of the same ones in the pic! "Recovery Pump" but our team also uses the NormaTec ones. SUPERB. Active compression. Noticeable difference.

Forget that, how does his mrs let him get away with those horrendous pants?

Cav using a Dura Ace crankset at the weekend and not an FSA one. Not surprising given his recent issues with dropping his chain.

jimmythecuckoo

...not that it helped though

The paramedic is talking to another Etixx sitting on the floor - isn't the second bike his?

No cav has two bikes there. From the looks of it they've put shallower wheels in as the rear wheel on the bike behind him looks like it has a deeper section.

Think you're right there rozzer, looks like the comments ref cav getting taken out twice are true as G fested up to the front wheel on Twitter.

I mentioned it on the Classics thread, (with minimal comment to see if anyone took the bait), but no-one seemed to pay any attention to it.

The advert that goes with it is good too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZ2RAxV7HNw . And the blurb: "Crashes are accidental. A man's essence is intentional."

I was almost taken in by it - after all if a cyclist is going to launch a fragrance it's going to be Cancellara or Pozzato.

Is the S-Works version lightweight carbon? Are the poles aero ?

Fact 13 carbon, and it has zero drag if I remember correctly from the press release

Plus a Zertz insert for comfort.
