There is a difference between bikes + kit matching perfectly and being complementary......there is no cohesion in the Cofidis bike + kit relationship.

Got to agree with that, it just doesn't "go". The eye is pulled in too many directions by the different colors that don't particularly compliment each other.

Seems to me that the red on the bikes and kit is washed to the same hue in the photo.
That said, the Cofidis kit gives me the "Coke Santa" shivers.

The Vacansoleil blue worked fine against Celeste. But the kit will not become a classic, no?

The Vacansoleil "limited edition Tour of California" jersey matched the celeste bianchis nicely though

10 days and i'l' share10 of my favorite 2013 Road Pro cycling moments + 10 songs i enjoy listening to on the trainer.

first up, Mark Cavendish wins stage 4 at the Tour of Qatar. Song "animals" by martin garrix.

memorable because of the sweet side street motorcycle camera. Seeing cav sprint profile view is beautiful.

Really nice looking, classy and understated which for carbon bikes from major companys seems to be hard to come by.

Also, is it just me or does Fabian ride with about a foot of setback? Might just be that he rides a 58cm sloping geo frameset and is >6ft fall but it just seems like a TON.
