What kind of Nancy low gear is that... a 25?
Paint job would be better with a red and yellow theme and Osborne bull.

It doesn't have a bear, so I like it a lot more than Levi's TT rig. I do like the three jersey thing.

So are both Lance and Contador going to be riding custom bikes in races now?
Sounds to me like a new UCI rule will come soon saying all riders on a team must have the same paint scheme for their bikes.

That would be a yes. I'm assuming Levi will be getting his soon (non TT bike)

Wow...you guys really think it's a "subtle" bike? Man, I must be getting pretty grouchy as I head toward 40!!!

I definitely think so. Yes, the Trek log is somewhat large for them (but just look at Specialized, Cervelo and many others if it seems too large), but there isn't a bunch of "stuff" going on with colors and pin striping.

Would someone post a linky? For whatever reason, it's not showing up for me.
