    Tendrá que ver probablemente con el conflicto del peso con la Uci:
    - “Legalize My Cannondale”? The SAECO team, which is currently dominating the GC in the Giro, uses Cannondale bikes which have stickers on them saying “Legalize My Cannondale”. Evidently the bike they use is lighter than is legal, so they have to put weights in it. One day they even wore “prison stripes” instead of their usual red jerseys as part of a protest against this rule. I have mixed feelings about this. I was a cross country ski racer in the late 1970s, early 1980s, when composite materials were just coming for the fore. The FIS (Federation Internationale du Ski) banned skis narrower than 44mm because ski racing was becoming a race to see who could survive a whole race with the narrowest skis. People would try narrower and narrower skis, and who cares if you broke your skis in one out of three races as long as you placed well in the other ones. They set an arbitrary limit to stop the equipment wars. Then the same thing happened with ski boots/bindings. Adidas made a very innovative plastic boot and binding combination that was light and strong and gave you really good control over your skis. But it was *too* light, and in the 1976 Olympics the Russian team was plagued by ski binding failures that cost them a couple of good chances at medals. A few years later Salomon perfected the plastic ski shoe for racing that while heavier than the Adidas system was FAR stronger and gave you even better control of your skis, allowing you to skate much more easily than before. Things have never looked back. (Too bad it was the Salomon-inspired skating stride that doomed me to never race again.) The same thing happened in ski poles - I saw a world championships where in the relay finish sprint, two racers collided and one of them had to finish with a broken pole. It was those Blackfeathers that I mentioned once before. Very strong, very light, very expensive, but a slight sideways impact and they’d shatter into pieces.

    El que te vendió la bici la pondría por solidarizarse, no sé...

    Buenas,

    la historia es que hace unos años, no me acuerdo cuántos, los corredores del Saeco-Cannondale tenían que "lastrar" sus bicis porque no llegaban al peso mínimo exigido por la UCI para competir, de ahí la pegatina (y los maillots) reivindicando la "legalización" de sus monturas... ;)
