Asia probably makes 99% of all the bikes we ride...
Well nancey boys or girls I am going to try out a set of these http://www.curvecycling.com.au/ next week. They are a good price, a good weight and they are willing to let me have a set to try out best deal you can get. They sell direct from the builder, I will post here with a report in due...

I believe he already is in a bit of an exclusive club with the TDF victory & a World Championship under his belt.

Forget all the woulda & couldas.
He did'nt get any support from lotto they were too busy looking after Robbie Mc in the sprints. Support is not just the the visible presence on the climb its the 24/7 support for 3 weeks which Robert Millar commented on in C/news.
