Martijn Maaskant will look to recover the form that took him to fourth at the 2008 Paris-Roubaix and another fourth in the 2009 edition of the Ronde van Vlaanderen aboard this UnitedHealthcare Wilier Triestina Zero.7. Maaskant is tall, 6’1″, and rides an XL frame. Photo: Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

Maaskant usually rides Wilier’s stiffer, more aerodynamic Cento1 SR, but opts for the lighter, more comfortable Zero.7 for the classics. Photo: Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

Maxxis makes a tire called the Campione, but the current model has a slick tread. This is either a rebadged tire (looks like Vittoria to us) or a prototype. UHC mechanics wouldn’t confirm either. Photo: Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

Old Dura-Ace arms, new Dura-Ace spider and chainrings, and an SRM power meter. Photo: Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

Maaskant uses a 130mm Ritchey WCS aluminum stem. Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

Ritchey’s WCS Logic Curve bars are popular on the UnitedHealthcare team. K-Edge provides a number of small accessories, like this computer mount. Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

Wilier uses the BB386 bottom bracket standards, a favorite press-fit system in the VeloNews tech department. Maaskant’s SRM still uses old Dura-Ace arms; there’s little incentive to buy the latest version of the Dura-Ace SRM unit. Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

Tacx takes care of bottle cages, bottles, and trainers for warming up. Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

The Zero.7 has some interesting curves. Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

More K-Edge, this time a chain keeper for a bit of added security over the cobbles. Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com

Another little K-Edge accessory: a nifty number holder. Caley Fretz | VeloNews.com
