I think GB's kit is the real puzzling one to me. What's with that s**t all over the flag?

It's always a good design even if I don't understand the blue connection.

I can never understand why they don't make them the same as the National chamion's jerseys, and I'm not talking about that Tinkoff, Sky, or Movistar crap

That's what we call cheap design. :D

Argentina is great, Denmark also but I don't understand why they cut "Denmark" in half
Switzerland by far the worst.

GB kit in white for road is awful. Its a bit better in the blue track version, but only just. Denmark are killing it, that kit is a classic already.

Hipster stuff, obviously, but damn it works.

(Not as well on the bib as on the jersey, though)

Took me a long time tor realise the black blob on the GB jersey is the royal coat of arms with the lion and the unicorn. I thought it was angry natives putting Popeye in a cauldron while waving palm fronds at first. Or a rock band playing with the drums in the background and the singer holding the mic at the top. Maybe that's the idea:

Since Tony Martin already seems to be declining and is getting older we shouldn't call him Panzerwagen anymore. From now on he is der Volkswagen.

1. Denmark.
2. Also Denmark.
3. Argentina.
4. Latvia.
5. All of the boring ones that are distinctly coloured.
6. All of the boring ones that are basically white.
7. Switzerland.
8. Britain.

What in the name of God were they thinking with the British one? That's the kind of mess that would get you expelled from an undergraduate design course as a hopeless case. It's as if they couldn't choose between two ugly jerseys, so they superimposed the two on top of each other to make one hideous one.

That bike and helmet colour choice of Alaphilippe. :eek:

That's not his choice. All of Etixx (maybe all riders from all teams sponsored by Specialized) will be sporting that paint scheme as part of the brand's Olympic Torch limited edition collection. The paint switches between yellow and orange depending on the temperature.

is Alaphilippe racing on Mavic wheels because Mavic is one of the french team sponsors?

he should be on Roval wheels (Etixx sponsor)

I'm just saying this because if the leader has a puncture, his colleague should be able to change wheels with him.
