Neither. The hoods should be replaced with soft carbon hoods, saving some weight.
Really though, I'd think that his hoods have micro injectors so he can have an IV of his dope of choice continually running throughout each stage.

And I say he needs black and yellow bar tape to match his yellow hoods.
Go for the whole Killer Bee's look.

You gonna eat that?
I really couldn't care less. If Lance dropped dead of a heart attack tomorrow, the silence would be golden (after all the memorial threads, anyway).

Black. Yellow hoods? Ugh.
That's... actually kind of hot. I don't know if I'd use 'em, especially considering that I don't wear see-through panties.

But regarding those hudz, what's the difference between the original and softgrip?

Ride it like you stole it
SoftGrip is new, they took the suggestions of their customers and improved the feel. I think they lost a bunch of sales to Far & Near. I switched from Hudz to F&N but Fairwheel is sending me a pair of the new SoftGrip to test out.

Carbon fiber bottle cages and reflectors, get rid of those reflectors. Trim those zipties on the stem holding down the computer mount. What is that roundish thing on the front of the handlebars? Another reflector? A mirror?
Don't mean to critique, just helping you out.
