Pretty sure that's an Antares on the Canyon Movie. Any bike would look good with those colours and campa.

We're talking about the Kuota from earlier.

My bad.

Next year I am definitley going to break into the Movistar truck, just to put some white handlebar tape and saddle on that bike..

I wonder if something like this, if it becomes a reality would it be considered doping? http://www.theguardian.com/science/2013 ... man-trials

Yes

Regarding reported Clenbutorol performance affects: Worth considering that pro cyclists are obsessed with body mass and at that level it's not easy dropping the last 1-2kg.

Also, to the unintentional ingestion camp:

I agree with you but on the other side based on my first hand experience it could be pretty easy to eat something wrong in China.
So that's why I think the trial is gonna be interesting but probably he will have a short suspension.

Why do many Italian pro teams have an indiscriminate number of logos on their jerseys?
It's a mess.

Even some of those guys use 20mm of spacers + top cap , on Cippo's frames.

Great looking build.

a lovely one.

Wow, another rider tests positive for Clenbuterol and raced in China. How much $$$ is the Chinese government throwing the UCI? No one seems to take the race seriously, I've heard the pollution is awful so no one wants to do it in the first place, lots of riders get sick during the race, and lets say these last 2 riders are innocent, good luck finding protein sources that may or may not have some weird shit in them.

The green on the Bardiani Gaerne shoes is a nice touch.
Are they wearing speedsuits/skinsuits with them having a shaped profile at the jersey hem?

Cause economy sucks and they aren't able to have 1 big single sponsor but only thousands of small ones...?

That's the normal kit made by Giordana from few years now; same as the Vermacs sponsored teams.
