I noticed this during the TTT but took a closer look today during the individual -
I know that Armstrong has some back issues, but looking at his position on the bike, it looks like he's either got some serious hunchback issues or he's wearing some sort of prosthetic aerodynamic fairing in the back of his suit, on which his radio appears to be mounted.
Am I just dreaming or is this curve a hell of a lot more severe than any other rider? Would such a fairing be legal?
