    I admit to having read the article in my TdF trawlings (CyclingNews, VeloNews, LeTour.fr). But how did you manage to find that answer on Google. Teach me, GoogleMaster.

    just type in the likely words, like in this case
    white ergo liberty seguros,
    face mecca and do the hokey-pokey
    and that's what its all about!

    Do you ever wonder, what if the hokey-pokey *is* what it's all about? 🙄

    That just gave me shops selling Sidi Ergo shoes and Liberty Seguros team wear or water bottles. As well as a whole heap of other stuff. Which way is Mecca?

    Nice. Thanks for that. I hadn't noticed the levers before now, you must have eagle eyes FD. Have you noticed any teams/riders using the Record electronic gruppo?

    nah. altho must admit the only reason i noticed these was cos of the usual assumptions
    (tyres will be black, cranks will be carbon/black, jerseys will look spewey, , ergos will be black, ... wtf???... ).

    I guess they use the 'testing' stuff in the one-dayers and perhaps the lesser riders seem to do that testing stuff too. Imagine the press...
    "and Lance has gone splat due to his new prototype balsa-wood TT frame...).
    It took me quite a few stages to figure out my eyes werent playing tricks on me

    So, how long do you reckon till ShimaNO and Campy release colour-build-kits so you can fiddle with your grouppo, aka smartcars???
    Mavic seem to have run out of ideas and started making red hubs

    Or howabout a frame made out of an electric field which keeps the running gear and contact points at the appropriate locations under the rider and can then be unplugged/packed down into your jersey pocket.

    think i might rademark that... 🙄

    F" trademarking the 'wonderwoman' bike" Dutch

    like the Back to the Future air-skateboard...an air-frame with invisible frictionless wheels would be so cool, Mr Mavic et al may not think so, but we would save a heap of time and dough in not having to repair flats...yay!!

    invisible? I don't see the positive of an invisible bicycle.

    just repairing flat tyres ....we could never do away with the most perfect object of man's creation ( sic: the bicycle frame ), it must always be visible , in fact highly visible, unless tucked under the sheets.
