All-new Team. All-new Madone.

Same Commitment to Excellence.

Trek Bicycle Corporation today announced that the Astana Cycling Team has

chosen Trek to be the official team bike and clothing supplier for the 2008

season and beyond. Starting on January 1, 2008, Team Astana (pronounced in

Russian and Kazakh as As-ta-na) will rely on the proven

technology of Trek OCLV Carbon to provide them with the lightest, fastest, and

best handling bikes in the pro peloton. Riders like defending Tour de France

Champion Alberto Contador and U.S. Road Champion Levi Leipheimer will count on

the cutting-edge technology and superior ride characteristics of the all-new

Madone for all-around workhorse duties in races like the Tour of California,

Tour of Georgia, and Tour of Missouri, as well as at the highest level of

professional events on the calendar. For time trial events, Astana riders will

race against the clock aboard the fastest bike on the circuit, the wind-cheating

Equinox TTX.

Dumb@sses are going with SRAM... when the only SRAM team of 2007 (Saunier Duval) have clearly seen the error of their ways and are using Campag like clever people for 2008... Seems like without LA, Johan can't quite make the right decisions... Oh well, sorry for Contador... That's the last Trek TDF win...
