Happy to see Astana picking up the asymmetry Movistar has left behind.

don't know about that big stripe across the back, looks a bit odd to me but we'll have to wait and see I guess

Random question, generally what is on those nose plugs riders have in their nostrils warming up before TTs? Menthol? Eucolyptus or something?

Just nose holes widener. Bigger holes-more air

Really? I doubt that. I understand the nose strips holding the nostrils more open, I use them myself, but plugs up there before I don't see that having a lasting effect over a long distance. Your nostril will go back to normal size very quickly once removed.

I always thought it was to stop their noses dripping!

Surely no one believed Brad would not go and defend his title.


Did they...?

The nose plugs actually have some type of liniment or menthol concoction to help open & clear the airways...pro's have been doing this for decades...

Nice to see astana in campagnolo..

And first Specialized Pro bike to be fitted by Campy EPS.

Quick step bikes were Campagnolo equiped few years back FYI
