Those pictures might show two different bikes. I've posted a picture of the two frames together (one image is reversed so they point the same direction). The images aren't very clear, but there seem to be differences in the headlug and headtube area. The widths of the seattube bands are different, but that might just reflect the move to a different team and a new paint scheme.
