You'll be binning off Roglic for Simon Yates, now thenIt's only a bit of sport, Mun. Relax and enjoy the racing.0

I’d love to see what Yates can do with an Oltre / Aquila to play with.salsiccia1 said:You'll be binning off Roglic for Simon Yates, now then

That’ll be the Rapha effect probably. I like ‘dales, not such a fan of Rapha though.ddraver said:All the hipsters on Mitch Docker's podcast all want 'dales now anyway...

Similar to what he’s been doing on a Scott.brundonbianchi said:

To tell the whole story, rather than just what the fetishist is into, Sunweb to Scott and JV to Cervelo
Musical Saddles as it were
I think a yellow & black Cervelo may test even my disinterest in what bikes look like tho... 😕We're in danger of confusing passion with incompetence

Cervelo are laaaaame"Unfortunately these days a lot of people don’t understand the real quality of a bike" Ernesto Colnago0

Shame, must be hard being on a team and having to downgrade bike.0

Some of the new ones look quite nice.gsk82 said:Cervelo are laaaaame
I like the cannondales though. Specially the Palace ones0 -
I'm still waiting on it getting interesting.
Any idea when that will happen?The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

JV might start winning again with the more up to date Cervélo’s rather than their current ancient Fiats.0

Only if you are a complete brand fetishist tosspot. For the normal folk, it's pretty insignificant.brundonbianchi said:This could be an interesting development.

Anyone find someone getting so excited by a bike brand slightly disturbing?1

It’s a good job I spent 12 grand on a bike that fits perfectly then isn’t it?webboo said:

Teams happily changing bike brands show that despite the PR guff the brand of bike means little in pro cycling and how it's really all about the riders.0

Flip side argument. Jumbo blame Bianchi for blowing Le Tour. Should’ve used Colnago. 😂😂😂joe_totale-2 said:Teams happily changing bike brands show that despite the PR guff the brand of bike means little in pro cycling and how it's really all about the riders.
Your argument is the correct one, obviously. 😉

I do like this argument. Perhaps the reason Alaphillipe lost LBL is that the new Tarmac hadn't been aero tested with a rider riding with their arms aloft.pblakeney said:

The old rim/brake argument is pretty boring now but it'll be mildly interesting to see if any Greenedge riders switch back to rim brakes from disc brakes if Bianchi still offer rim brake options.0 -

Yours are the most entertaining comments on this forum.3 -
At least JV will now be able to dictate a frame colour to suit their jerseys!Half man, Half bike1

The Oltre with SR EPS disk has an RRP of 10.5k - and NOBODY pays RRP when they spend 10.5k on a bike unless they're a total fud - so where has the extra 1.5k suddenly come from? You've already told everyone multiple times it was 10k. Have you added a tw4t tax to it, or are the massive stack of spacers made from graphine?brundonbianchi said:

I don’t know where you got any of that nonsense from. Have you tried to buy a bike for less than RRP lately? I had to.thegreatdivide said:

Just in case you missed it, the RRP of my bike was 12 grand, I certainly never said it was 10 Grand.
See.

J.V. we’re dominating the race, until a couple of duff tactical calls, and a ballsed up final ITT cost them. How was that ever Bianchi’s fault? It would be interesting to hear what they think the problem was.pblakeney said:

Same as what was right when they were leading it - the riders.brundonbianchi said:

I’d be surprised if Bianchi supplied the older rim braked version, rather than the new disc braked version.joe_totale-2 said:

It wasn't Bianchi's fault. Just the same as they couldn't claim credit for the win.brundonbianchi said:

Pog on a Raleigh Chopper would have beat me on an XR4.
Only a deluded mug would think a £12k bike will be faster than a £3k bike.The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.

How many watts/grand did you gain?
