  Could be used, would like cheap and shiny please.

  Again, would like cheap, pref silver.

  Anything considered, and I am in Manchester so either meet here or post. May be in london next week but not 100%

  Here is Jens Voigt riding a far too small, clip and strap neutral service bike in the TDF a few years back. It's simply not possible to have the right size bike with right pedals available to all the riders on mountain stages when they are spread over many miles of road.
  

  That pic looks like an Astronaut riding a donkey.

  They are/were aluminium Cannondales. Clips and straps, Mavic wheels. Don't know about group sets but I think they're Shimano, probably Ultegra.

  Interesting, Thanks.

  In the Giro it's Pinarellos.
  

  Looks like the giro sold the advertising space to the highest bidder, so they put better bikes up there. Pretty cool though, cheers.

  Thats helped me out quite a bit folks, it hard to research something when you don't even know the name of what you're looking for!
