i still stand by that the BMC kit is one of the top 3 best looking kit this year and last, maybe even #1…designing a good kit is not easy espcially with restraints of sponsors but it still amazes me how bad some kits are
Can’t say I’m totally in love with Gilbert’s Belgian kit—seems a little bottom-heavy and unfinished with all that red. Plus mismatched BMC logos (top black, bottom white) feel like a split kit.
But two thumbs up for the fat and shameless rainbows on Cadel’s sleeves. Way too many kits have wimpy narrow stripes that don’t give former world champs their due.

Fun fact: Cadel was originally hired to race road bikes because Mapei consumer studies showed Aussies buy the most tile adhesive per capita.
