Unless it gets a bit hot and you start to sweat

There you go, Roomport Cycling new jersey, new Dutch Pro-Conti squad.

Beat me too it Raineman, if you've sweated in black kit it doesn't look good!

[KWalker]

Black also provides a good background so people can read sponsor logos. It goes with almost everything, including most frame colors.

LAKE shoes for all the riders for ROMPOOT team and BBB helmets

Who cares what it looks like post race. That looks boss. Rode a hard race. Worked hard. Might as well have a changing tent right before finish line so that they can put on new kits to look good post race so they don't have salt residue on their clothing. Sounds important.

Just wrong, every aspect....bike paintjob, kit colours, bike and kit match.

Those Bell aero helmets look like they're from the early nineties

[tymon_tm]

the kit is awful, the helmets are ridiculous... but i very much dig the Bianchi celeste. it's the only bike that actually has it's own colour and IMO Bianchi should stick with it no matter what

Bike paint job? Bianchi Celeste has been around for years...looks great imo, more traditional compared to previous years and teams...

[KWalker]

Just because something has been around for a while doesn't:

1. Mean it looks good.
2. Matches the kit.
3. Can't be made to match the kits.

.....the bike looks sooo ordinary, boring and super cheap in my eyes No idea behind it....just Bianchi Celeste color

The regular xr2 paintjob is so much better! Stunning!

Might be me and my old ways, but it just seems wrong to run a Bianchi on anything but Campy. Makes the bike gods cry.

is there a rule of some kind that says everything must match the kit and look alike?

just becuse a bike matches the kit, doesn't mean it looks any good

[lippythelion]

It doesn't have to match, but coordination should be important.
