I don't think Vaughters will want to let that one go though. I'm hoping there is a color change up now that it's Garmin-Cervelo. I don't think Vaughters will want to let that one go though.

THAT is an area to work to improve - keeping in an aero position.... not about where the seam is on the suit, which just gets negated by larger aero infractions elsewhere. personally, I think optimizing where the seams are on a speed suit is pretty much a waste of time giving most TTing cyclists can't keep their heads straight so every time they look up or down or left and right they put that huge aero helmet blade into the air and make turbulence.
