I was thinking the Specialissima looked pretty good in that colour schema (minus the pink bar tape).

That Oltre looks effin horrific.

Maybe Lotto are trying to make Kruijswijk's competitors physically sick. :noidea:

While we are at paint jobs, must be the worst Bianchi ever:

I think those are next years Shimano shoes. Michael Matthews was also sporting them, back in April.

Uran's TT photo: that chain seems treated with/full of paraffin or wax.

Either way, that gives 6.0 W/kg or 6.5 W/kg, stunning, considering fatigue caused by previous stages where he definitely wasn't saving himself.


I think it is more likely to be 68.

Kruijswijk put his numbers online as well. 385W average.

In all fairness, you'd have to be a pretty damn good looking bike to compensate for that picture background. That upholstering cries for an escape out of the late 1980ies.

Looking forward to seeing that Bianchi in a more subtle setting in the coming days.
