True, the bike makes it better. Still could've done a better job, designing it less blank.
Leaving room for more sponsors, no doubt! I certainly think it goes better with the Bianchi bikes than JV's kit.

The ISN jersey is horribly boring. Disappointing especially since it's a clear step backwards from last year.
Movistar conti teamI think this one is one of the best jerseys of this season. Mostly are very awful.
This tweet suggests there will be a new kit:EF will keep their design from last year?
I see on their website that their signings already have a photo with last year's jersey on. And their social media communication design with Nippo is in the same colors and imagery of last year.
It's billboard time.
It's... beautiful. It's like a Greatest Hits album of Italian Pro Continental kits. There's a bit of ISD-NERI, a bit of Ceramica Panaria, a bit of Ceramica Flaminia, some Nippo-Vini Fantini, and all delivered with the usual subtle Savio flair while somehow still finding room for classy black shorts. Like an old Lotto-Soudal kit but designed by a six year old with a bumper pack of stickers to stick on top of their scribbling, this just screams Italian ProContinental like almost nothing before. The biggest complaint is the colours are far too subtle to put it up there in the pantheon of the greats like 2013 Vini Fantini or 2008 CSF-Navigare. It just needed an eye-bleeding additional colour as a stripe between the black and white. Maybe a garish metallic lavender, or neon green.It's billboard time.

Love it! It's nearly as awesome as the EF Giro kitIt's billboard time.
Love it. Gives the viewer just enough time to read the names of every sponsor before a rider gets swallowed up at the end of a futile breakaway.It's billboard time.

Pronounciation is irrelevant.
