Like Catnip to the Rouleur

H/t Belgium Knee Warmers and their excellent interview of Jonathan Vaughters.

Look how shallow the drop is on his handlebars.

That is a Roubaix bike so I'm not sure the drop is completely representative of his usual position. That said, he's like a human sail when he's riding. Seeing the Colavita guy behind him at CSC - was it Frattini? - was amazing and funny, like a flea hiding behind a bear. Magnus Maximus isn't 'big for a bike racer,' he's just plain old big.

any idea what size bike he rides? gotta be a custom build right?
