Will this be the bike that wins the Tour de France?

With that stealth hub sound you will never know when he is not pedaling. Maybe part of the tactics lol

All that aero work for Tadej hair out the helmet!

2015: "this bike is a bit heavy with 6.9kg"
2022: "7.27kg pretty darn feathery"

[ozgurgurbuz]

srm pc8 weight 93 g
srm pc8 mount weight 20 g
bidon weight 54 g x2
leggero carbon cage 17 g x2
look keo blade 115 g x2
485 g total extra weight

so prototipo is around 6.8 kilograms *updated*

Beautiful Italian bike, with campagnolo. 🔥🔥🔥🇮🇹

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.

I never understand the obsession with loud hubs. Personally I can’t stand them but that’s me

[malcolmjcullen]

Technically, Colnago have had bikes win the Tour de France before, but they weren't branded as Colnago. Eddy Merckx's orange Molteni team bike was a Colnago Super with "Eddy Merckx" decals on it instead.

Still not a huge fan of the font for the new Colnago logo but I absolutely love that bike. Almost as much as I love my 1996 Colnago Master Olympic

[helmiwijaya]

it would be great if there's more measurement other than stem and handlebar

[Scuderia]

Thanks for the video.

7.27 kg was that with the SRM head unit ? And were the water bottles empty ?

We don’t want this, we want G’s time trial bike in a wind tunnel with a gilet vs no gilet! Just how many watts did it loose and what would the time have been?

[arcadiushakim]

Its been said before here, Eddy Merckx was also riding a Colnago frame (Rebranded as a Merckx) and won the tour before 2020 a few times. Merckx of course was a great promoter of Ernesto Colnago and vica versa, put Colnango on the world stage. Like Bianchi and Pantani. Lets get our facts straight for the Youths, whom watch this channel.

Love the stealth hub. I hate a loud hub. They sound like someone couldn't afford grease lol.

Browsing through TDF vids and ran into this… can not believe he was still running mechanical group set last year for the tour…

[tskubi]

This is a Darimo seat post for sure. Unlabeled but a high tech Darimo seat post.

[davideckart]

I'd like to know the tire seems that a lot of riders go with 28mm width in normal road stages.... can you confirm?

[natheirabu-dahab]

All the mechanicals UAE Team Emirates has been having are mildly concerning

[runzization]

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
