(I believe someone emailed them about price and availability last year and was quoted £3000 / 18mths lead time

Ah yes, I see you're right. Same one he used at Olympics. Cheers. It's a pretty snazzy looking helmet

I understand covering the off sponsor chainring, but could they not find a can of BBQ black grill paint to at least make it look legit? Come on, we all know that looking good is half the battle.

Yeah, a fair bit of setback that he couldn't stay set back on, he was constantly shifting his position .... looked like Contador. He really didn't look comfortable, I wonder why? I've never seen him shift around like that before?

Because he's getting ready to win that road race?

I don't know, maybe I need to rewatch it, but i'm pretty sure he was shifting throughout the entire race. And it was significant too, he was sliding himself a couple of inches back on his saddle.
