• What are the new BritishCheatBikes™ like?

    Team GB now have a mainstream mass-production frame manufacturer as team sponsor, the Rio track bikes will be the 2017 Cervelo T-whatever

    Presume they've been testing some shit in other track meets?

    Look at the footage from world cups - they've been on a mix of the old UKSI bike and the T4

  • They won't use the Cervelos for sprint events.. and Trott will be on a UKSi bike too for the womnium/team pursuit. The team pursuit will also be on UKSI. Basically only they've only been using Cervelos for mass start stuff in UCI events that no-one at BC cares about.

    Hats off to BC for finding a bike sponsor making uglier track bikes than the UKSI ones though... Bravo.

  • The team pursuit will also be on UKSI. Basically only they've only been using Cervelos for mass start stuff...

    What they had here for filming last week would suggest this might not be correct.

    Trott was on a Cervelo T4 for the World Championships. I'm assuming BC cares about them, and I'd hardly describe the omnium as a mass start event.

    Sorry about the dredge, was looking for something else and stumbled on this.
    "They won't use the Cervelos for sprint events." I think everybody except Hindes used the Cervelo
    "Trott will be on a UKSi bike too for the womnium/team pursuit" Partially right, I think she used both in the Omnium
    "The team pursuit will also be on UKSI" All four men and three of the women used the Cervelo
