    Does it come in anything but anti-hangover yellow?

    Radiation Yellow is the only choice. to match the new trek-segafredo kit

    It reminds me a little of the Fluoro yellow Orbea's in the 90's and a few other brands that had that stinking idea of painting bikes in vivid out of focus orangy pinky sort of indistinguishable. God, they were awful.

    Here's one:

    ...and I see Trek have come a long way :roll:

    I really like the Merida. If it wasn't for the headset/stem setup.

    That hi-vis is only for training. They're trying to make a point about being seen whilst amongst traffic etc.

    They'll be racing red bikes again next year. And the Madone is the same as the current model. No change.
    Napoleon, don't be jealous that I've been chatting online with babes all day. Besides, we both know that I'm training to be a cage fighter.

    Oh! Shame, I like it better than the regular kit.

    Looks like you might be right though, and they might have also switched to Sram eTap

    It's Castelli. Those certainly look like Castelli bibs. The drips round the leg give it away.

    Different kit innit.


    My poos are made in the same place by the same person but they're certainly not all the same.

    Castelli it is.

    If they go Brit size there'll be hell to pay.

    Do we have to have a reference to the Bristol Stool chart. Had to look it up. It's all your fault Rick.

    So I can wear my Rapha in peace then?
    We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

  • Nice kit, but was hoping for something a bit different.

    I'm sure the riders will be happy with their kit over the coming seasons. Best of the best.
  • Dull, dull

    And a bit of a rip off of Rapha's data motif
