This prototype, or ‘prototipo’, hasn’t yet been released to the public, but Si had the opportunity to take a close-up look while in Denmark for the Grand Départ.

Will this be the bike that wins the Tour de France?
This is a Darimo seat post for sure. Unlabeled but a high tech Darimo seat post.
So the 130mm stem is to make up for the size S frame(52cm?)
During USPS era I remember all the Trek's for riders (5'10"- 6'1") would go between 58cm for mountain stage and 56cm for everything else
Not bad….. for a Giant 🤣
UAE has been having a lot of mechs in the Tour. Campagnolo?
Looks disposable under my 180lb. frame.
G3 spoking is marketing-driven rubbish. It makes the wheel weaker, more prone to damage and only Campagnolo, in a vain attempt to differentiate its wheels from the rest of the bunch, promotes. It, and any number of junk Chineseum wheel brand copycats. Chapeau.
Really good looking bike
I have a $300 bike that weighs 8kg with lowest ende shimano wheels, but thanks anyway
How much would a bike like that cost?!
What’s the size of the frame?
Unless this bike rides itself I believe its the legs of Tadej that make this bike go fast
is that even legal with 7.27kg? 2 bottles, pedals and head unit and even the bora ultra 45 DB at 7.27kg. its crazy light tho.
That bike is tiny
Richard Mille has to throw all the money they make from dumbasses buying their parts bin watches somewhere lol.
Doesnt seem very outstanding at all, but we'll see.
looks like the saddle is nose down a bit?
It hac special hidden batery.
I thought Prototypes weren‘t allowed in the Tour and every bike must be purchasable?
How come brands can't figure out a way to produce 6.8 kg bikes ? I just don't get it. It's not that difficult to achieve, even with discs.
OMG, valves are not aligned and cranks are in wrong position. I hope, they'll fix it until it gets to production.
aside from his manager and mechanic. he trusted you Si to touch that horse
no tyres on it?
Call it "Cara", Italian for expensive!
Looks like Tadej has changed his position a bit over the previous bike of his they reviewed
Just watching TdF right now and just realized how short Pogacar's handlebars reach when I saw it. Then I searching it on the internet and just found out he's using handlebars with only 75 mm reach. Damn.
When Tadej cycles with his shirt undone flapping by his sides then all aerodynamic advantage of the bike is lost.
I feel like hub soundchecks are going the way of people wearing vertical stripes. Vertical stripes became popular because they make people look a bit more slim, so naturally all fatties were wearing them. After a while, if you wore vertical stripes that meant you were a fattie so they went out of fashion. The sound of a freehub does not determine its quality, its just fashion. Some of the loudest I've ever heard were installed on 50 quid AliExpress wheels.
The ending of the video called plot twist
Disc brakes…..for a 25mm tubular in the heat…what could possibly go wrong lol
Should have used rim on the climbs. Rear disc locked up on the descent. Give me a rim brake Colnago any day over this bike.
V3R rim brakes from last year TDF have 6,8 kg, so BIG progres🤪
2015: "this bike is a bit heavy with 6.9kg"
2022: "7.27kg pretty darn feathery"
Si Jinxed the bike 😅
Its a little smelly even with deoderant.
What tire size? 28?
Browsing through TDF vids and ran into this… can not believe he was still running mechanical group set last year for the tour…
Excellent bike and super light
A+ experience w seller and amazing road bike – buy it
