Li2 "A" dials instead of remodeled L6 or Li2 "C" dials suggests high-end. Also being tested by pros probably means high-end.
It definitely looks like a premium shoe to me.

I am guessing one is an Ares v2
The white one could be the Ares 2 and the black the S-Works 8.
The black one looks almost exactly the same as the 7 other than the missing toe strap. Hard to tell if it's even using the new Boas (I would prefer the metal boas of the 7).
Pros currently use both, so not completely unrealistic that they are refreshing both at the same time.

Just seems weird that an Ares 2 would break cover less than a year after the original was released.
Also Li2 comes in a metal option.
Riders need to ride their team kit until the end of the contract which is usually the 31.12.. So theoretically each picture could not be older than a week.

So now that the lace 7s have made their appearance... when do folks think these might show up?
