After his involvement in the controversial kinesiology tape saga that made headlines during the Tokyo Olympics, it appears that Dan Bigham is pushing the boundaries of the UCI rules once again.

During today's Team Time Trial Mixed Relay at the UCI Road World Championships in Flanders, he and Alex Dowsett were seen with something down the front of their jerseys, described by Michael Hutchinson as a "gigantic monoboob" in Eurosport commentary.
