It's eye wateringly ugly

so it suits him

 

There is some clever stuff going on there, but its clear that there is no aesthetics committee or marketing department involved ...

surprised the front brake calipers are in front of the fork and not behind..... so much drag.....

What is with the stem? Charging point for the electric motor?

Thats Hideous....

 

 

If they made me ride that I would quit and join the Vacansoleil Team. They have some style.

 

How much time is Wiggo going to be exposed in the wind? 0.2sec? There is no aero saving when all you do is hide behind the Froomster.

that cockpit is goddam ugly!

I like it , it is like the new Raleigh bikes, black is back- and less is more would like to try that oval chainring/crankset and see if it really helps at tdc, and during power stroke

 

It looks better than this peugeot below,

The wildebeest of the bicycle world

[Metzet]

made in China ..

[Azonic]

There are Chinarellos that look 2x better than that, and would seem a whole lot more aero.

Would be nice to know what helmet he will be using since they are so very aero orientated and like rattlesnake said why put the brakes on the front and would it not be more aero to be making ultra light disc brakes for roadies now??
