But it looks a lot worse in their weird reveal video, so I think we need to see it in a race, before we can fully judge it.

Ingesting because I think it looks better in the video!

I like the standard jersey its even more fruit salad than last year, and navy shorts I think matches well, but I dont like the national champ details on the arms they just feel in the wrong place, I think they should be on cuff of the sleeve, and wider.

oh and the video is too filtered to judge the colours properly

 

[staubsauger]

An improvement, I think.

Fly like an eagle... Into the future.

This looks a bit like last year's Manuela Fundación fantasy creation, but without the weird teddy bears. I quite like it.

I like that one—would make a great t-shirt. What are the crossed axes about ?

Well the name Axeon is a portmanteau of Axel (Merckx) and Neon (a company whose website gives absolutely no clue about what they actually do), so the axe presents itself fairly locically as a logo. Which they pair with a hashtag #proveit which is used by so many other people, evidently unaware of HBA that it is of no value at all.

But that is the kit this year which, devoid of logos etc, I would buy for myself.

Have Ag2R Citroen and Arkea simply not come to my attention, or are we still awaiting their kit announcements? Same as before?

I believe AG2R willl be using the same one, but Arkea has announced a new and redder kit with a dash of Bianchi celeste thrown in for good measure.

I think Neon is a Venture Capital firm who invests in the early stages of development of up-and-coming projects, who are owned by Neil Hutchinson, who seems to be an enthusiast cycling fan and recreational rider.

Also very similar to EvoPro. Also quite like it.

So a portmanteau of a portmanteau.

36.5 shades of grey

Did you count?
Not sure what would count as "half-a-shade"...

Yes, I have counted them all. I can also tell you that there are in fact more than one X on the Uno-X jerseys.

It occurred to me while Bettiol was being interviewed today that the Ed First kit, with its vertical halving, looks more like jockey's silks.

 

[Breezy1985]

What in god's name is the point of those half black national kits. Also is that giant swiss sleeve allowed ?

The Astana Wilier color scheme is hot:

Medellin EPM aren't going with the black jersey Lopez was orginally shown in, but are taking shades of fades to the next level. They've even got shades of blue fades!

And we thought his former team was shady!

The black one had some nice drawings on it, but this isn't the worst kit around.

 

[zlev11]

one of the worst years for world tour kits in awhile. there's like 4 teams with the same exact blue jersey/black shorts kit and then 4 more with red/blue.

 

[RedheadDane]

Starting to think that this might be a team that will not follow along with the - actually rather smart - trend of having high-viz training kits.
It just doesn't feel... necessary.

SD Worx was my favourite but this is now
