Kwiatkowski's special world champion colours were unveiled at Il Lombardia last October However, while the frameset has remained similar, there have been a few alterations in components and wheelset for 2015.
Kwiatkowski has used Specialized Roval CLX40 Clincher wheels in training [as pictured], but he will race on the tubular CLX 40s and run Specialized newest generation of S-Works Turbo Tubular tires in the coming weeks. The shift in wheels sees the Belgian squad replace Zipp has the manufacturer of choice.
