So do I spy the new kit on Lance?

My eyes miss nothing. I’d LOVE to see Trek go ‘old school’…not unlike Cervelo is doing now with 'Test Team' and rock kits to focus on advertising their brand of bike as Bianchi did and forever branded celeste in doing so...with Coppi of course...although Big Jan tried too. Adding some LiveStrong flair would be great too and the ultimate publicity booster for the predication of Lance’s comeback. Bottom line, I’d love to FINALLY see Lance et al in some rad uniforms instead of those God awful kits the great state of Kazakhstan makes these guys wear. I think Trek’s per annum on carbon bikes is likely bigger than the capital city Astana’s GDP.

You be the judge…

Certainly fun speculation, but I think this is a version of the livestrong U23 kit. Either way, white would be a good color for July.

Equally nice catch, but the photo you sent is that U23 national champ from Japan they have on the squad. That's his 'stars and bars' kit.

It's the U23 kit, they have both black and white versions.

You're blowing my dream here, BK. Now go back to your bike racing and gallivanting around Germany and let me dream my dream of infinitely better taste rolling with the peloton.
