Bikes and equipment for Pegasus racing??

[gogo419]

Just wanted to know if anything has been released (or rumours) on what bikes the pegasus team will be riding next year and what groupset, wheels etc??
Any info is greatly appreciated.

I'm pretty sure that I heard that they'll be riding Scott bikes.

 

[PCutter]

Yep, they've announced Scott Bikes and Helmets buy thats it so far I believe

Any ideas on jersey design or colours?

 

[Michele]

That would be easier to guess if there was a main sponsor named.

Something exotic, I believe. I think they'll beat Footon in the "ugliest jersey of the year contest"

 

[gogo419]

They have 4 teams for next year.
Pro (or pro conti)
US conti
womens (domestic Australia i think??)
U23 domestic

Would Scott provide bikes for all the teams? or just the top one?

The 2010 jersey was one of the most well designed I have seen in a few years, hope next years is as good.

The jersey is supposedly going to use some aboriginal colours. So maroons, reds, borwns and yellows will be on the jersey i guess..

 

[Tuarts]

Where'd you hear that?

It'll be a Santini top but until we know the sponosrs...nfi what it'll look like.

The 2010 Fly V jersey was very cool.

i remember Chris White saying in an interview that they would be aboriginal colors on the jersey just like AFC said...

I heard from an 'inside source' that they will be riding Malvern Star bikes with full Tiagra Gruppo's and Alex wheels. Malvern are reportedly claiming an overall weight of under 10kg for the bikes.

The jerseys will feature an imprint of a semi naked Lara Bingle on the front and the words; "So where the bloody hell are ya!" on the back. Colour is yet to be determined but I have been told that this will need to match the bikini that Ms Bingle will wear at the photo shoot.

I also understand that Greg Henderson has been authorised by Sky to have a response imprint on the back of his jersey which will read: "I'm in front of ya cobber, thats where i am!"

Of course the veracity of these reports still need to be confrimed by the Hog.

That is a truly bizarre comment.

 

[Hoop Dogg]

That is a truly bizarre comment.

Not really... I mean, if u have a look at some of the other teams that base themselves around a particular country to help build their identity, there is Rabo (Dutch orange), katusha (Russian colors), Astana (kazach) even back when they were us postal (red whit and blue). I'm just glad that they haven't just gone down the old path Australia= green and gold. Man we have some pretty awesome aboriginal art down here and would love to see a mad intricate design taking in some earthy hues.

I thought Robby M had a personal contract with Ridley. what happened to that?

2010 FlyV Jersey was very good, hope they don't stray too far from that (depending on sponsor)

I suspect it will change a lot, the new sponsor will want something new to symbolise their brand not the old sponsors. Also with the Aboriginal feel that is meant to be added i expect that they will look nothing alike.

That would be easier to guess if there was a main sponsor named.

Newscorp is the main sponsor.

There will be a Rupert Murdoch face sketching in the middle of the jersey. That will be yellow. The jersey will then be red and black resembling the Aboriginal flag.

So basically:

Black will be the top half of the jersey.

Red will be the bottom half of the jersey.

The Rupert Murdoch sketching will be yellow in the middle of the jersey.

If it's not that, then

Consolidated Press Holdings Limited will be the sponsor.

There won't be aboriginal colours but rather casino chips all over the jersey.

nude lara bingle. i like that. sounds better than tokenism aboriginal cultural exploitation.

Chris White loves to talk things up. A lot of hyperbole comes out of the blokes mouth.

That's a bit harsh. Do you have something against him?

 

[Sasquatch]

How is that a bit harsh? I have nothing against him.

All I'm saying is he loves to talk a lot of sh!t to gain publicity. See how he presents himself in person and you will know what I mean.

the jersey could have lots of poppy flowers. front and back. and a big sythe cutting the heads off them. maybe a can knife though, the would be more oz, more queensland.
