If you read the article, it says Trek provided all the journalists with a full Bontrager clothing kit, so my guess would be that maybe it's part of the new Bontrager collection.

Yeah, but if you look at the other photos the kits that were provided we quite pedestrian in comparison.....I am with Woz as that label is definitely Giordana. No way would Bontrager come out with a kit that desirable.

Interesting. Certainly "safety" colors on the road...

Reminds me of some of the stuff by Shutt... at least the colorful patterns.
Road bike: Cervelo R3, Campagnolo Chorus/Record mix...
Supercommuter: Jamis Renegade...
Oldie but goodie: De Rosa Professional Slx, Campagnolo C-Record...
And you can call me Macktastik Honey Pete Kicks, thank you.

It's an exclusive kit made by Giordana for the staff of Bicycling magazine , unfortunately is not available to the public.

Interesting. I saw someone riding with these shorts on one of our local mountains (Vancouver, Canada). Looks cool, but I would not wear it personally due to its connotations. But eye-catching for sure.
