If I were Lance, I'd go with a carbon fiber Trek. Sure there are other bikes, but he's had a little success with that-

That's ok. Most of his postings on mechanical items are just as indecipherable.

Some high-end Trek. He's got a contract with them.

If he goes to a team with a different bike sponsor that might change, but don't bet on it.

He could ride some other high-end bike rebadged as a Trek. It's been done before.

Unfortunately I don't think Mechanics call the shot. Lance will ride what sponsor will tell him to ride.

/discussion.
