I don't maps very often and I just tend to ride rather than following a route. If I do a route I have the map uploaded so I can have the climb data. The climb feature is handy for doing munros on my bike.
It would have really hit home if Si said some poetry before turning into the classic Si shenanigans - but I suppose we don't want to scare everyone off.
I think bringing a trainer onto GCN to talk about how amateur riders could benefit most from the different types of data on their computers could be really helpful. It's great seeing AY and MP's screens, but does what they need to see translate to a novice's needs? It would be great to have that direction.
I was searching for this video like an hour ago and all I saw was 7 year old videos, and I was thinking why is there no recent one?! and here it is😂. GCN knows what everybody wants!
This is such a nerdy question…and I found it fascinating 😁 Surprising I’ve not heard a pro being asked this question before, given that cycle computers are something we all use!
We would love to do more behind the scenes content at the tours! Did you catch Alex's deep dive into race radios? 👉 th-cam.com/video/C03CZQYVwu8/w-d-xo.html

Got a Wahoo as a gift a little over a year ago and it’s impressive how much data you can get from a computer. And they’re tough, too. I’ve taken a number of nasty spills and the computer isn’t even phased, besides for a few scratches.
After a group ride left my OG Elemnt on my roof after we got back and drove down the street with it there. It flew off onto a major road near where I left. Got ran over plenty before I could spin around and get it and the screen was ruined....still was working and sent all my ride data to my phone. Things a tank.
The great thing about the wahoo is that I can reduce the number of data fields so that the font is big enough for my 65 year old eyes to to see 5 data fields on one screen 😂
I've had a few head units over the years and one thing that is very very important to me now is serviceability, warranty and parts availability. People spend big money on a phone and expect prompt warranty service if need be and parts availability post warranty. I've had a unit go(USB port went)and I couldn't get parts post warranty. Also because that some head units have to returned to another foreign location for warranty at the owners cost. One thing I'll say for Garmin is there's lots of aftermarket and genuine parts from cases, screens and batteries for reasonable costs.
So was I. I had figured with signage on the route, and the DS over the team radio, mapping was the one thing they WOULDN'T need while racing. Super interesting for Adam to talk about how he does use it.
@@andrewmcalister3462 Given the speeds they descend at they need to know the how tight the upcoming corners are -don't want any nasty surprises! The DS won't know where everyone is on the route at any one time and the camera feed can be delayed
I’m not at all surprised, personally I use it the same way. It’s super useful on descents and roads you don’t know well to judge how steep and long an upcoming corner is or if it’s immediately followed by a bend the other way or a junction etc which could catch you out. Really helps you to choose your line and speed through the corners more confidently. Of course if you only ever ride on roads you know well it isn’t necessary
@@stevenmeyer9674 you think they know all the roads in the world? each turn of tour down under and GP de la sarthe ? DS can't warn for everyturn and team mates can be in different groups anyway, plus radio communication isn't great sometimes. Finally i've you ever ridden in a bunch, when you are in the middle of it it can be hard to tell how sharp next turn is
Interesting the priority put on the map by Yates and the simplicity of what he is looking at while racing. Distance to go and 5-sec power all thats needed...
If you follow GCN you already know they're Wahoo fans. I have a Bolt V2 on my Gravelbike and got a Instinct 2 watch a while ago and use them together. Completely overwhelmed by the generated data from both devices, but then again... I had a simple Cateye for over a decade so some "catching up was needed. Always though everybody at the Tour was just following the man ahead instead of using maps on their head units.
Great video! I use a Wahoo Bolt but I’d love to see what the riders who use a Garmin display, as from what I’ve seen while watching the race they also have interesting data combinations
@@silviugheorghe7118 they’re the biggest TH-cam cycling channel BECAUSE they only do paid promotions. They have to get money from somewhere. Besides, GMBN was sponsored by Garmin for a number of years. They made quite the strong statement for the quality of their devices too.
@@andrewmcalister3462 - agreed, I'm a Garmin user, and I see this gets flagged as an "AD" for Wahoo, but honestly I'm not sure there would be any difference in the data fields between the two brands.
Personally, I prefer the data widgets to plain data screens; I don't own a Wahoo so don't know if they offer these. On a Garmin Edge, my two favorites are " SPH Graph - SPHGraWH" & the "MY EDGE2".
My wahoo is specifically set up to show climbing data. I love the graphic and although it can get pretty depressing, I like having the info on whats coming up behind that next climbing corner. Speed, watts, HR, are pretty meaningless to a 70 year old.
@@RobertTarmac even if I’m doing Z2 it’s super nice. I’ll reset the lap every 10 minutes just to make sure my average power remains in Z2 throughout the ride. It’s a great tool to force you to maintain pace
Was really surprised to see that most of the info I look at was very similar to Alan Yates, especially cadence when we live in a cycling world obsessed with watts. But mine obviously is purely out of interest as apposed to performance 😂
Main screen: 5s Watts, HR, Avg HR, Distance, Cadence, Total time, Time of day. Map screen: NP, L/R balance (probably should remove it, not so useful), Elevation Lap screen: 3s Watts, Lap Avg Watts, HR, Lap Avg HR, Cadence, Lap #
You can connect multiple ant+ units (powermeters) to one wahoo, so my guess they connect their bike and spare bike to one unit and take the unit with them when they change bike. Another unit on the spare bike might do the same trick, but i have seen riders taking their wahoo with them when they change
basically the same as how you pair to a different set of headphones or Bluetooth device. I have power meters on different bikes, my garmin will ask me if I want to switch sources if the active power meter is different from the last one and you simply say yes or no
I'm surprised the sprinter didn't have any climbing data, the sprinters still have to get over the climbs just like everyone else, and they need to save as much energy as possible over those climbs.
I absolutely suck at climbing, so I like to have it so I can gauge when the suffering will be over or if I get a little break in the gradient to catch my breath. It helps to pace for the climb. Maybe he is like my brother. My brother doesn't want to know. He says he is better off not knowing.
I wonder how long it will take before most of the info from the head unit is shown on a HUD built into the riders sun specs probably with voice activated commands to change the display
Less than half of the TdF peloton use Wahoo units according to DC Rainmaker. I’m the last person to defend Garmin, but 11 teams are using their devices and only 9 are using Wahoo. Accuracy is pedantry blah de blah.
Or the ability to have the map twice. Would be great on the bolt to have map full screen one line of data then on the second instance of the map more data fields
Can Wahoo and Garmin PLEASE bring out devices with larger and clearer displays? As a 48-year-old cyclist with long-sightedness that is extremely typical for my age, I have had to give up on these devices completely.
why haven't they added a radio to the head unit. If they have one attached to their body already why not combine them in the head unit with a wireless Bluetooth microphone to the helmut with push button on/off button on the handlebars. We can do this and be safer while doing it.
Same, that was my main takeaway. Sure it syncs into Garmin Connect and my food tracking app after the ride, but I'd pay better attention to it if it was right up front.
Explain to me: Why hasn't Wahoo and Garmin added a feature on the maps that allow the coaching staff to modify the route colors (before the race) to help the pros know how much energy the coaches want them to ride at? Or, any other tool/metrics that the coaches can advise them with. They always have race pre-briefings... Remind them when they are out there!
That would be just like the already existent "workout" feature that these computers have. But due to the unpredictability and the stocastic nature of a race, that would be cumbersome and not actually useful, I think
As I was watching, I wondered something similar, could the software let the riders and coaches take notes that could be downloaded onto the unit and perhaps have the unit talk to them to remind them about turns, hills or places where the rider doesn't want to get stuck on one side of the road or another, personal, functional notes. If I am thinking of it, then I suspect they thought about it 15 or 20 years ago...
Understanding the data is so important for professional cycling. However, for the average person, the important thing is to "ride your bike, ride your bike, ride your bike".
Very interesting. I was amused you spent 30 seconds explaining what a head unit does but then asked a question about how a "DS" compares , no idea what that is!
He was referencing the fact that the Directeur Sportif (team manager) will be giving directions over the team radio eg. Sharp turns, road hazards, et .
It was just only Wahoo, which has very limited possibilities how to customize the data screens. I use Garmin and its Connect IQ, where I use many customized data fields. I like datafields, where I can see e.g. actual speed, avg. speed and max. speed on one field. Super cool.
I had the Garmin 1030 before, twice the price of the Wahoo Bolt V2. I went crazy to dig through all the menu's to set different data screens pages in the Garmin. With the Wahoo you setup the screen data fields via the phone Element app. It goes so fast and easy. Also adjusting the ride (add an extra detour location while on the road), you can easily do it on the fly with the Wahoo (using the Komoot or other navigation app on the phone). The Wahoo Element app on your phone recognise this and send it to your Wahoo Bolt (via bluetooth), then it done. I never could do this with the Garmin, it never worked for me. If you want to enter a destination address on the Garmin, you had to do this on the Garmin itself and was too difficult to complete (unless you pin the destination on the Garmin screen with your finger, since the keyboard is useless). Especially when you are on you are biking in the middle of nowhere. The phone/wahoo communication is so much better implemented. I sold the Garmin because of it.
Can you guys ask the Yates brothers, or measure yourself, if their bikes are set up the same, or if they are wildly different? Curious if they have the same setup and how close it is if not. I have no idea why either. Data for me on my Garmin, 10 fields, time of day, time I've been out for, current power, avg power, current HR, avg HR, speed, avg speed, total distance, and feet climbed.
The reason for those screens are the better readability in every condition, even when the sun is shining on it. I know it looks like calculator, but its great for racing. (Wahoo Roam V1 and Garmin Edge 530 Owner)
I can read my screen fine on my edge 1040. I more mean the HUGE bezels and the lack of touch in the Bolt and the fact that he can’t just touch it to see the temperature, you gotta put it on as a data field. The V2 version of the bolt and the roams were a real disappointment. - Former Wahoo User
@@Emonk2010 rode in rain last week, just press the power button and it locks the screen. And winter gloves, I dunno mine work fine? But I generally use the Di2 buttons to flip screens anyway.
That’s because no one had computers. As soon as they were invented the top riders started using them because they could see the clear benefits. Merckx would 100% have used a headunit.
What do you have on your bike computer? 🧐
distance, clock, elapsed time, speed, 3s power, average power, cadence, HR (large size). use the HR to keep within my limits (never happens lol) same display for MTB and Road.

@@Emonk2010 rode in rain last week, just press the power button and it locks the screen. And winter gloves, I dunno mine work fine? But I generally use the Di2 buttons to flip screens anyway.
@@RobertTarmac you were given a choice and you bought a touch screen lol. The 540 is for you
Oh look. A Wahoo commercial!
I'm a Garmin user, but the information provided is equally as useful for Garmin, Hammerhead, Wahoo.....I'm not sure it matters.
Surprised they all showed you their wahoo
63 BPM during the interview. Must have been nervous, since his resting HR is probable like 30 BPM.
Wahoo ad
TSS seems an odd choice
It is for racing. Not for training and recon.
최고 👍 thumbs up
Luar biasa
Mate 4.8w/kg is crazy good. So I donno what planet these pros are in
How much did Wahoo pay , ..just asking
All the great riders didnt need a computer to tell them how to ride. They just pedaled.🤷♂️
That’s because no one had computers. As soon as they were invented the top riders started using them because they could see the clear benefits. Merckx would 100% have used a headunit.
Mats has a wahoo roam and you are holding a bolt? 😅
Was Mads angry at you and not willing to be interviewed? It's not like he's had a lot more requests from other news outlets...
I wonder if any of these guys have strava live segments enabled lol maybe snag a KOM during the tour
they do! I follow Pogi and Pinot and they got some KOMs this week
Even as a customer of wahoo who is fond of the product and use it daily, this video was too much of a hard ad an product push lol
this was definitely not staged lmao
