The Quick-Step Floors team, formerly Etixx-QuickStep, revealed its kit for next season and the verdict for Dan Martin is very much a thumbs up.
On Monday we brought you pictures of the kit Nicolas Roche will be wearing next year with his new BMC Racing Team and today it’s the turn of Dan Martin and Quick-Step Floors to reveal their clobber.
With Etixx gone as title sponsors it will take some getting used to.
In keeping with last year, the dominant colour is most certainly blue, with white also quite prominent, replacing the black from 2016.
The blue is a markedly lighter tone than the one used this year and we reckon it’s up there with the best kits we’ve seen for next year, so far.
Zdenek Stybar gives us a full frontal view and as you can see, it's quite different to the darker blue and black kit worn in 2016.
