Bike porn

the dude obviously knows nothing about riding position. His saddle is wayy to high up making him stretch his toes (should'nt do that) and the bars are too close with that short stem for him.

maybe he rides mostly on the drops when he gets going?

Looks to me like he's just off the saddle. I doubt he's spent that much on a bike without knowing that his toes should need to turn down whilst pedaling. Also, he's running brakeless so I'd say he's unlikely to be a novice.
