That instagram photo was pulled down. I don't suppose anyone was smart enough to save a photo... :)

If I had the money, that is the bike I would buy at the moment. Disc brakes and all.

I wonder if they are still using SRM head units? I can see SRM speed sensor (and also RT99's instead of RT900's)
Other than that bike looks stunning

I was thinking the same thing after reading what it said at the bottom



Dont forget that in cycling a GT the belief amongst many is to get your body weight down to almost skeletal levels and keep your strength and power, this will usually be done by taking something like clen and most likely some tests shots like test prop or sus which is out of you body in a few days ,some HGH but with HGH it a longer benefit process for most people. Some steroids would also help with this process Anavar and Masteron,Winstrol, Dianobol would be beneficial but it’s a risk because they would be in your system for A few days but can be masked using corticosteroids ,estrogens even some oral contraceptives and good old apple cider vinegar.
So looking at Wiggins now it seems he’s at a normal weight for his height etc . He has no real muscle development just a normal looking bloke who’s not in the business of going to extreme body “ torture “to win a bike race.
It going to be interesting to see if he reaches 100 kilos and what he looks like. If he all of a sudden gains 10kilos of solid muscle then that’s a huge red flag . That’s just not possible , a few genetically genetically gifted body builders have managed to put on that kind of muscle over a shortish time ,year etc but not many even the top body builders reach a limit , but they have taken anabolics , test, insulin HGH etc big doses ,but they won’t get tested . For Wiggo to put on 22 pounds of muscle It’s just not possible unless he’s planning to get fat.

When your a professional athlete and you have the best coaches and drs at your call you know what can be done but Wiggins putting on another 22 pounds of muscle is not going to happen unless he blows up like a balloon. Never liked him have no respect for him but he is intitiled to cheat like everybody else.

On the website off Specialized I see nothing of a new Aero helmet. In march next year I'm gonna buy a new helmet, my first thought a Specialized Evade but if there is a new one I'll wait.

I say wait. it´s normal for the brands to wait to update their website. the new helmet will debut probably at TDU and be available on the websites from March/April
it´s an early debut, usually they have the new stuff ready for July (even if the Evade made its debut at Sanremo-Tirreno-Giro 2013)
