His twitter feed said he rode 80 miles on this thing Sunday. And I'm guessing it's 54/14? Plus he probably rides with gloves so doesn't need tape?

i reckon its a 52 -14/15. weird that he doesnt tape his bars, even if you wear gloves you dont have anywhere as near as much grip, especially in the rain. saying that, those bars could be the carbon with a rough texture to the surface.
im actually quite supprised, i thought the use of fixed gear training was long dead in the world of international pro racing.
