Finally someone with a proper brainLaFlorecita said:Get over yourselves, it is a bright yellow. You should know by now that the fluo yellow does not come across well on photos.
FFS, people were complaining about last year's Tour jersey, and most people ended up loving it. People complained about the camo training kit, and most people ended up loving it. People complained about Alberto's pink/fluo yellow/blue combo at the Giro, and many people ended up loving it.
It's just a freaking jersey, it stands out which is the single most important aspect of a cycling jersey. Build a bridge and get over it, all this complaining about a stupid jersey is just insane. The Tour is a bike race, not a fashion show.

Jelantik said:OMG. What the hell?? I hate TS kit. Sorry what was that? a yellow bush? What happen with their yellow flo or the other yellow from last year?? This new color is so washed out.. it's like i want a yellow but not really.. and let add some grey bush for combination that makes either color looks so washed out. It needs a strong color to help balance the washout yellow. Might as well use black to bring up the lighter color. Having light color against the light color... geezzz.. Very disappointed with their TDF jersey this year!! Why can't their designer creates a modern simple design like Giant Alpacin, Trek or sky. I'm not fan of them, but I love their jersey design and color combination. Simple, bold, and modern.
EDIT: the last time I check - they are on a bike race not a duck hunting
Lol, and two days ago he looked "fat"Red Rick said:They're trying to use the outfit to take away attention from the fact that Contador seems to have lost upper body weight already
It certainly looks like that, I dont believe he lost so much weight in a few daysLaFlorecita said:Lol, and two days ago he looked "fat"Red Rick said:They're trying to use the outfit to take away attention from the fact that Contador seems to have lost upper body weight already
Maybe the team photoshopped the pictures
Electress said:There's something very weird with Alberto's knees. I mean, they face outwards? And that muscle on his left leg is crazy.
Electress said:I love it. Bar socks. And it is unlike anything else in the peloton. It's not f…g black. That's enough for me.
IAM's is the most 'stylish' jersey IMO - especially if they'd let them have the I AM Clement or whatever. i might actually wear it if it weren't a team jersey. But that doesn't mean it is the best for the peloton. I love that I can always find Tinkoff riders without even trying.
