Who do you think will win? Wrong answers only
How much do BMC feature in Grand Tours the moment? Not sure why they’d be top 5.
the wilier is the most beautiful
Again my Aeroad easily takes 32mm tyres
What about the Tarmac SL8?
these chains are so dirty
wilier filante slr is my best bike i ever had. before i use a sl5 tarmac specialized and now with the filante i go 2km/h faster with almost same power
Do bikes matter in 2023? Don't the riders, trainers, and support teams make 99.99% of the success?
They all look the same 😅
How is Specialized gonna feel that they could’ve had Cav break the record last year but likely gonna do it this year on a Wilier instead?
The Aeroad with the updated seat clamp location was quietly rolled out two weeks ago, all new models now have it at the CFR frameset gained 120gm.
1:45 when your leadout man spoils the air with a nasty fart!
Any reason the Dogma F isn't here?
Canyon Aeroad is where they are because of the pilot not the bike.
Ahhhh, roadies are starting to realize us MTBers are on to something with the 1x. 😉
Feeling quite vindicated choosing Conti GP5000 S TR @ 32mm for riding British roads
Tarmac SL8 is the only bike that matters. Hopefully it makes an appearance.
I care about my own bike more than anyone’s else. Not sure anyone outside the TdF peloton need to think about the gear pro’s use. It’ll all trickle down to us eventually once proven good by the pro’s – like the focus on aero vs weight and broader, tubeless tires.
Any possible (thoughts) that are new bikes haven't been released soon? I'm interested in new Aeroad? Sl8? new teammachine? New Wilier?
my dream bike is canyon
How can I "like" something that I haven't yet seen?
Cavendish's Filante paintjob looks stunning
There should be an art exhibit of all the Wilier bikes that were/are made available in the Ramato paint scheme. 💯🔥
Cannondale SuperSix Evo -> light & aero ❤
LOOK 795 Blade RS
What about the new BMC?
all that aero, 99% of buyers are fat old men
Hate to bring this bad news but there is no tour de france bike I need to know anything about. Since it's all ridiculous overpriced bad (mediocre at best) engineered crap. The price range is way above anything I will ever want to pay for a bike
The best looking bike in the peloton will always be the dogma. other than that i prefer round tube rim brake metal bikes. (i do ride disc brakes for practical reasons tho)
I vote for my Felt z5 that only cost me $600. Shimano 105 Forever! 😅
The budget basic woodchip backdrop is very home-brand pound shop GCN.
Veezma. Deez nuts.
Cube Litening…a race monster and looks beautifully!
I have a red Filante and it’s beyond amazing, both in terms of looks and performance. Proud to have realized this dream 😁
I wish Liam Cahill had just stayed at his Sainsbury's job in Bath. That was his place.
Very good quality at a reasonable price.
