I'm sure the marketing people will have an easy job selling bikes at the new inflated prices.

That's for sure! And the reason I like getting my stuff through team deals.

yup! should be a big help to the marketting guys for sure. their bikes, shoes, helmets, and saddles. Those are the big ones i heard them plug a few times on tv. plus all the other things that have the Big S logo.

I don't know about you guys down there in the States. But there were a TON of Cervelo ads during the tour coverage here in Cda. decent commercials too.

Something wrong with Specialized bikes?

All the comments appear to be about how specialized can capitalize on a good situation. Yes there appears to be a bit of humor mixed in. Just folks having fun lighten up a little.

Indeed.

The TV adverts run during the TDF show Schleck and Contador - who both use Specialised product - competing against each other on indoor trainers.

Great advert too!

...but misleading. I don't believe Andy can eat 21 gels, a fried turkey & punch out a bear in a single sitting!

....or it just so happened that people riding their stuff dominated. It's likely, now, that the Spesh marketing guys are still wiping their own splooge from their chins. The Tdf was an orgasmatron for them.

Agreed Bert & Andy woulda domintaed even if they were riding Huffys...well maybe not Huffys!

So what's the odds on Bjarne announcing Bert to his new team & sponsored by 'Spesh'?...seeing as Bert still has his personal sponsorship with them & Bjarne's team have them contracted for next year?

I bet Alberto will be putting his finger banger in Bjarne's holster.
