    Cofidis mechanics are old school -- tubulars and white bar tape -- as it should be. I note that the only team in WT still riding Campy has gotten around the problem of no normal chainrings by riding last year's chain sets. 😅

  • @charlesblithfield6182
    @charlesblithfield6182 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Less handlebar drop and longer stem enables the most aero position with forearms sort of parallel to ground? Noticing less drop of HB from seats. Interesting to see these adaptations of body to aero optimizing. The bike is nothing compared with the body in terms of aerodynamics hence the fact that aero kit (socks incl.) probably brings as much or more benefit than a fancy aero frame.

    Nice look behind the scenes. Tubeless, discs, electronic, wireless, aero... hilarious that the pros have to ride bikes between 0.5 and 1kg heavier than any self-respecting amateur... Still, I'm sure the aero makes loads of difference rolling along in a peloton! I've built plenty of mechanical Ultegra/rim brake bikes that easily make 6.8, with pedals, cages and computer mount. These bikes are bizarre for road racing (that's mostly bunch sheltered and all about acceleration) or Strava (!) but would make fantastic high-average speed, competitive Fondo bikes.

    The new factor’s top tube is incredibly thin.
    Caleb probably gets the bike fit seal of approval with his setup.
    The BMC, integrated bottle holders was already their thing but now number holder? Sleek!
    Look, from another video appears to mostly be an SL7 clone with some under-the-hood changes such as geometry and materials.

    Come on be a sport & guess ...😅
    7.3 Nah 7.2 Nah 7.1 Nah 7.0 Nah
    It's weight with the Time Xpro 15 Pedals and S-WORKS Carbon Bottle Cages & the FSA computer mount ...
    Weight is 6.83 & Peter the Mechanic said it was much lighter than the Pro Peleton Riders

    The rediculousness of modern bicycle tech is evident in the overt reactions displayed by fans and the rediculous prices they pay for that tech. Example. It can cost thousands to shave a few pounds off a race bike. So this is the result. 20lb bike + 175lb rider = 195lb vehicle, 17lb bike + 175 lb rider = 192lb vehicle. A total mass reduction of 1.5% for a cost of $$$, sky's the limit. Rediculous
