Wiggins undecided on what bike to ride: Pinarello or Felt?
News that Pinarello is the bike of choice for Team Sky allows us to ask the same endless, silly question everyone keeps asking -- only in a different way.
Will Bradley Wiggins be riding a Pinarello for Team Sky or a Felt for Garmin-Slipstream? Jonathan Vaughters, Mr Argyle himself, insists Wiggins has a contract with Garmin, isn't going anywhere and is riding a Felt. In fact, they just applied the superglue to the seat.
Team Sky sources continue to tease the cycling world saying Wiggins sure would look good on a Pinarello at Team Sky. They'll even buy him a Kryptonite Lock and put a ringer bell on the handlebar if he wants one.
Wiggins himself will only say what he repeated many times in the Tour de France --he's taking things "day by day" and is at a bike shop in Manchester, England trying out both bikes and riding them in a gorilla suit so no one catches on.
He's even using a fake British accent to fool enterprising journalists eager to learn the true story.
Is a composite frame the only answer? A Feltarello? A Pinafelt? Stay tuned.
