I'm a long time listener of the Lantern Rouge channel so this video is heavily influenced by that while focussing on triathlon rather than cycling.

Thanks be to the holy RUclips algorithm for showing me this channel 🙏
These races analysis are very interesting, I'd love to see more!
I watch this video at least once a week. Great job dude
That descent by Von Berg is madness!
Super impressive! Least worn brake pads in T2 award I reckon
Here you have some comments. Going into the race I had Gustav Iden as my favorite. This was based on his race in Bahrain, and of course from ITU. He ran a 1.07 in Bahrain. And he is one of ITU's strongest cyclists. That means he is a better cyclist and runner than 70.3 guys (sorry ironman fans). Iden just had one bike. He did not choose a road bike, it was the only alternative. But he said that he knew he could get aero on it. He had to borrow wheels and a helmet. Regarding biking the hills without bottles, he lost then due to bad dottle cages. It was not a strategy. In the end, he had the second-fastest bike split (1s beck from RVB), but he had legs left and easily outran the rest.
I was mostly shocked that so-called triathlon fans did not have Iden in their top 3.
Thanks for the comments and fair play for calling it! He certainly should have been up there that's for sure.
I know he had one bike, but if that course had been a more traditional 70.3 one I suspect it's unlikely he would have raced at all with it. I did see he had a back bottle early on too, but I also think losing that wasn't a bad thing.
That was a stacked field and although he was likely to be in contention, certain aspects really worked to his advantage to enable the win.
Awesome race brakedown analysis you did, thank you !
No worries! I'm glad you enjoyed it
And now he’s IM World Champion! I love this video, it always hypes me up
On that course I really think the choice of an ultralight aero road bike was spot on, but in the end Gustav was simply the fittest.
Very insightful analysis. Loved it!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Enjoyed that. Great breakdown
Really enjoy that! Thanks!
Glad to hear! Hope your training is going well
You are like lantern rouge for triatheletes
That was excellent! Thank you.
Thank you! Glad you liked it
Amazing effort from Gustav, Alistair and all the participants. mobeleash
Great commentary ty
Great video!
That was really good Chris. Interesting to see the impact of Eden’s shoes.
I’ve often wondered if a road bike would be a better choice sometimes on a tasty bike course for lighter riders where the weight of the bike is more of a hindrance
Glad you enjoyed it mate! It definitely did the job for this one!
Thanks! Subscribed. Don't lose heart. Do the work. They will come.
Awesome vid
Superb, enjoyed every single sec. Thank you!
Thanks, good to hear!
Nice commentary
Superb analysis well done 👍 Staffordshire & Weymouth for me this season if you have any advanced tips 😁
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
💥 Outstanding ✅ Video💥
This was so great thanks !!!!! Can you do the PTO championship in the future , thx. Love the perspectives and educational aspects of this commentary.
Thanks, great to hear! Yeah would love to cover Daytona, hopefully there is footage available.
I also wrote some athletes to look out for here: www.tri247.com/pto/daytona-preview-pto-2020-championship
Nice one. Like the swim GPS idea. That motorbike at the end of the bike wasn't very clever, shouldn't really have been there. With such a strong run though I don't think the result would have changed. Obviously that RVB decent shows disc brakes just slow you down!!
Stephen Jelley that descent was pretty insane hey, sure you’re familiar with hitting the apexes like that too though mate!
epic
Hopefully we'll see more days like this in the not to distant future!
What model of s-works bike is using iden?
2018 Venge Vias I believe
順澤宮 from Taiwan
Gustav is like 2011 Crissy Wellington. Could’ve rode a huffy and still crushed it
This bike was really easy to assemble ruclips.net/user/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though - the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700x25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.
nothing wrong with riding a road bike with clip-ons - if you can maintain a comfortable and aerodynamic position there is absolutely no difference between this and a triathlon bike. Ive seen people hitting better CdA on a road bike than they do on a tri-bike even - lastly it all depends on how your body fits on the bike frame. actually think triathlon bikes are just marketing at this point lol - on a budget you can easily upgrade a regular road bike to a triathlon geometry so you dont have to buy another bike - clip ons, saddle mount and rims will do the job.
Yeah agreed. I do think it depends on the road bike model too. We tested an athlete with draft legal extensions on a Cervelo S5 recently and the numbers were incredibly good. The venge in the video and the S5 are obviously top end bikes built with aerodynamics in mind. The main point in this context is how well it worked out on this course.
Great video but it’s actually a Taiwanese cap
Thanks, apologies, need to brush up on my Taiwanese
@@pureperformancecoaching3377 to your defense, he did pick it up from Japan, but the cap is originally from a temple in Taiwan haha. It’s because of cap he got sponsored by Giant(Taiwanese bike manufacturer) pretty funny story
@@yuxc that along with winning in Nice! He seems to be utilising that bike sponsorship well this year!
He was on a road bike but look at his postion its as good as a TT bike.
Crowie 2.0 possibly
Bro it's a Taiwanese hat not a Japanese one lol
A few have informed me that, my mistake. Apparently from a temple in Taiwan.
@@pureperformancecoaching3377 no worries, great video tho!
Hat is Taiwanese not Japanese
What does he mean he ran a 68 ? 19:34
Ran a 68 minute half marathon - 1h8m
@@pureperformancecoaching3377 wow, even faster than Kipchoge lol you mean half marathon hahaha but that's okay
@@spicypretzel7616 Thanks, just edited
Gomez is from "Mexico" (?) and Iden’s Taiwanese hat is from "Japan". Had to bail after minute 2.... that’s some record breaking clueless.
😂 thanks for the comments. Who are you referring to with Gomez?
The Mexican he was referring to during the swim was Joaquin Pereda not Javier Gomez...
@@JorRam2 I don't doubt you. He called Joaquin Perez, Javi Gomez. He had the wrong person entirely and mixed their countries...
@@israel_started_it_ALL_in_1947 nah mate your wrong here, he made a great video and the hat thing is a pointless and easy mistake that doesnt affect the race analysis at all. also the swim thing was another easy mistake as you can barely see who is who in the water.
