One curious thing Pigg did on the end of his aero bars one plug was black the other white. He did that on several different bikes, not sure if it was coincidental or intentional e.g. superstitious. Also the plugs were what the standard issued Ironman plugs ie the ones with the screw compression style...

stop me I'm nerding out.

One more thing before I forget, the year they used the yellow fade color scheme they were using Scott DH aero bars. Later both Scott and Pigg switched to the profile version.
