Etixx have Kittel. He and Sagan are going to be duking it out for the sprinters jersey in a grand tour this year.

Nah, Kittel can't get over the mountains for the intermediates.

 

Kittel, Ewan, Gorilla etc more worried about stage wins. Don't think there is much competition for the Green Jersey at the moment. Who do you guys think could challenge him, realistically?

He should stop looking for the team that can pay the most and start looking for a team that can support him, in Grand Tours and Classics...

A Beefed up COFIDIS perhaps?

Now that's an out of the box thinker! You might just be onto something :)

Michael Matthews, OGE

And maybe Alaphillippe in years to come

 

I reckon Sagz is eyeing Zabel's record in the Hulk jersey

I think realistically Trek segafredo are going to be desperate to replace Cancellara and Sagan is perfect fit. Trek also stand to gain a lot by putting Sagan on their bikes and I'm sure will be happy to cover the big budget. The team is set up to support a rider like Sagan already, he could slot right in .

Possibly a pro MTB team?  :ph34r:

 

 

Peter Sagan (Tinkoff), a junior world mountain bike champion back in 2008, will race two mountain bike events following a short break after the cobbled classics. The 26-year-old Slovakian is set to toe the start line at races in Austria and the Czech Republic before he gets back on the road bike for the Amgen Tour of California.

From a Cannondale, to a Spaz to a Trek? Seems like a downward spiral. Only Giant and Merida before the nails in the bottom of the barrel....
