The new Avanti Corsa DR looks pretty much the same as the current one except for the rear break location. I can tell you those breaks are a bit of a pain after working on the Corsa SL. Also will not be stages compatible.

Yeah not really feeling that new Giro, looks almost like an old school Bell helmet or even the original Bell Reebok Pump mtb helmet

If it's anything like other 'recent' Giro road helmets, you won't be feeling it at all until it's passed AU/NZ approval a few years down the track :roll:

@DartanianX

I noticed that yesterday. I happen to follow him on twitter but not on FB. Either way it looks like it is all settled now. Someone else posted an FB posted saying he talked to Cav and it was from a fake account. "Sorted with Cav. We 100% agree it was not from His account.
All smiles."

Intense video of one of the riders in stage 5 of the Tour de Suisse. Amazing how close they are, moving at such high speeds, and they don't crash. Looks so much easier when viewing from afar.

Aww man I wanted I see 2 skin and bones spandex laden cyclists go at it, which tubular front wheel would you take to a fight? I'd roll with a Paris Roubaix Ambrosio... Lots of spokes!
