And for those who understand dutch/flemish, here's a page with a video about the specially developped paris-roubaix bike of the Silence-Lotto team. It 's basically a cross between a cyclocross bike and a road bike. Cross brakes in the rear, road brake in the front, longer wheelbase (+3cm) for a more comfortable ride over the cobblestones, of course the higher BB height of a cross bike which allows pedalling in the corners, a road fork and road fork angle for the same aggressive steering feel of a road bike and last but not least specially developped 25mm Vredenstein tubes.

which all goes to show how obsessed belgian teams are about P-R.
