Mudsimus Posted September 29, 2009 Share Why would they laugh? Although only in name, Raliegh is one of only a very select group of brands that won the tdf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ASTANA Posted September 29, 2009 Share a bike is a bike- last when I checked. Give the top teams Raleigh's and they would still win - not true ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet you Cabinfish and Horshovd will break it in a sprint. ja they would probably "trap" the crank through the BB. haha. Winning is not sprinting - you have to be gentle with these - high cadance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bike Mob Posted September 29, 2009 Share the TDF pro hardly use an off the shelf bike, and their frames are actually heavier for sprinters with beefed up BB's etc, and slightly different head tubes to make them lower and stiffer. Ok so rally aren't perceived as a top Marque, but they are getting better all the time. I hope they shrug off the perception soon. I think it's great how far their sponsorship goes when not many other brands are giving away bikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
