Is there anything more anti-climatic than a kit launch? The prospect of seeing a team's new design send your imagination running; maybe they'll completely change the colour, maybe just maybe, it'll be everything you want to see in a pro kit? But then you realise - it's just vaguely different to last year's.
>>> ‘Team Sky has a €35m budget, it’s complicated to compete with that’
Nevertheless there was a buzz around the Team Sky kit launch last night, with many of you voicing your opinion one way or another. And no matter what kind of marketing spin Castelli can put on it, it's the people's voice that matters.
So here's the best of your internet based comments on Sky's new rags. Some of you hated it, some of you sort of liked it and some of you just downright couldn't care less.
The people who thought it looked like and arcade game
The people who thought it looked like an aerial view of a motorway
Some people actually did like it
