I found this on another forum - great pics of Team Sky's bikes.

and the Team Garmin-Sharp

Can anyone point me to similar pics of the other pro teams bikes?

What are the triangular contours for on the frame of the tt bike? I assume it's something to do with aerodynamics, but if so why don't all road bikes have them?

My mate bought Michael Rogers' 2011 race bike earlier this year....it's porn. Cofidis' Look 695s & GreenEdge Scott Foils are my favourites but this thing is still a weapon....

They sell them through a couple of different shops.

I'd love a Cofidis LOOK 695, the Dogma doesn't do it for me, but I do love the LOOK bikes.

No.

They usually have two and a TT bike I think.

Garmin sell theirs at the end of each season. I fancied one of Van Summeren's bikes but I suspect they're a little pricey...
