Yes, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, now you too can be outfitted with a pair of genuine Schlecktacles. Perfect for the cyclist who spends 90% of his time looking at what’s going on behind him. Just like Andy Schleck.

Yes, you too can save yourself from the neck strain incurred when constantly turning yourself half-way ’round backwards while trying to win the biggest bicycle race on the planet.

* Warning: May cause irritability, lack of spine, difficulty breathing, difficulty with shifting, pedaling, turning, and going. Particular problems have occurred in use descending La Côte De La Rochette and riding in circles in Dairy Queen parking lots. May cause hair loss, noticeable shrinking of the testicles, and the open disdain, ridicule, and mockery of millions. Some test subjects (henceforth and hereinafter dismissed as a statistical anomaly, but we’re providing you sue-happy vermin with notice anyway) have experienced difficulty in trying to harden the fuck up. May cause an irreversible dependency on Vagisil and like products. May lead to difficulty winning bicycle races. And, in some cases, full blown AIDS.

For the photoshop inclined among you, feel free to put together your finest efforts in superimposing a set of Schlecktacles on the conjoined twin Schleck sisters. Please post links in the comment section. (I’d say email ’em to me, but I’m straight buried at the moment.)
