It's so interesting that pogacar is running 32-33mm tires. I'd love to try that. Would soak up a lot of the garbage roads here. I still have 24mm tires 😢
I switched to 30/32's and they're more comfy, generally faster, more grippy, and more confidence inspiring... but I started in the age of 21/23mm tires so my brain constantly tells me the big tires are slower😅
once you do it you won't go back. my local roads are some of the worst in California and going back to my other bike with 28c on 14mm internal rims make me want to throw the bike in the garbage lol. Tubeless with 32c tires...beautiful and fast!
There have been some amateur testing that shows 32c tires are the fastest size. They are definitely more comfortable. My bike fits 30c and are a world of difference from when I had 24c.
@bikeradar, regarding the chain the mechanics do not wash and lubricate again. Visma lubricate their chains in their Tour de France headquarters and at the end of each stage a new chain is used. The chain that has just been used is carried back to the headquarters for cleaning and re waxing.
Yes, appreciate that segment was a bit difficult to follow - I know the Reserve rims aren't hookless, but my guess is that the 29c tyres were made in response to the whole De Gendt incident (Vittoria also sponsors Lotto-Dstny), and other teams with similarly wide rims (in terms of internal width) will be adopting them for better aero performance rather than switching to 30c tyres. If we'd had some warning, I'd have contacted Vittoria to ask about it but I literally saw it for the first time just as we were about to shoot the video and we only had limited time to get everything (video, photography, social content, etc.) done before the bike went back to the mechanics.

@@bikeradar Thanks Simon. Would be great to see what Vittoria have to say about the new 29mm tyres. I run 28mm on my S5 with reserve rims and would be keen to know any benefits. Would also be great to see a similar video with Vingegaard's setup this year on the S5. Thanks for the great content!
@@tompage7394 We'll ask VIttoria at some point and see what they say, but I suspect it's simply about complying with the latest ETRTO and ISO standards (and the UCI's directive on this) about rim width and tyre size combinations, and enabling the teams to run slightly narrower tyres for better aero performance (otherwise the teams could just use the existing 30c tyres). As for the S5, we're back in the UK now so we won't get to check that one out in persob at this year's race, unfortunately. We did see his S5 at last year's race, though, and other than than the paint job and groupset it hasn't changed too much, AFAIK - you can check that video out here: ruclips.net/video/hw-_D8nwd9s/видео.htmlsi=jTFIlLXApV262Xax
the SRAM set on Visma bikes still looks a bit different than the new Red or old Force. Pretty sure Visma just gets the tip top of R&D secret groupset by SRAM
The all-black chainrings are actually different than what comes on consumer bikes, to be fair - so you're not wrong in that respect. AFAIK, you can buy these oversized chainring sets separately from SRAM dealers, but they're not specced on OEM bikes and they don't come with complete groupsets. Cheers for watching, Simon
If I could build my dream bike and someone else was paying for it, it would be pretty close to Tadej's bike. I already ride Dura-Ace and ENVE/GP5000, but my stuff is a couple versions older. From my experience, Shimano is in a league of one regarding precision and refinement; SRAM feels crude in comparison. I feel bad for Jonas having to use SRAM. I think Tadej gets another slight advantage with the wheels & tires. ENVE are virtually indestructible and so stable, giving a high degree of confidence bombing down descents, and they're amazingly stable in cross-winds, and the GP5000 is the superior tire, not just among the best with low rolling resistance and light weight, but also with a superior rubber compound that's grippy and forgiving both in the dry and the wet. None of the other bike tire companies can match Continental's racing R&D. Tadej has the superior bike setup.
Great video - my understanding is the 29c vittoria’s also solve an issue common with the 28c that at sharp angles you are cornering partially on the cotton sidewall. I’ve seen riders wear them down there first. I have both tires but prefer GP5000 for reliability and rumored aerodynamic superiority 😊
Something that the best two cyclist in the world, who account for the last 4 TDFs, both ride bikes that are more like the TCR than the current look-a-like aero bikes..

I guess UAE decided that the rolling resistance benifits of a wider tire at lower pressures outways the aero losses. There is a really fine balancing act between rolling resistance and aero as well as weight so we can expect to see the tires changing between almost every stage depending on the parcour and the team strategy.
@@core-i7413 he’s riding 30mm. I’m riding the same tires, different rims (no overpriced enve) but also 25mm internal, and they are 30mm measured. Goes to show it depends on the rim
70 grams is within the missing bike computer on Jonas' bike compared to Tadej's bike. Another 50 grams is within the heavy speedplay cleats (pedals are light, but cleats are heavy) that you have to factor in. And so you immediately ditch 120 grams of that massive difference. Above all, Jonas mainly uses the slightly heavier S5.
Great question - usually we try to contact the teams via their press offices to arrange it in advance, rather than springing a surprise on busy mechanics. Sometimes, though, we just have to be patient - the mechanics usually understand that us covering the bikes is good publicity for the team, so will typically give do their best to accommodate us (and everyone else from the media) as best they can. Cheers for watching, Simon
40-34 climb gearing for the pros is wild to me.as someone that uses a 1:1 gearing. Also wild is that is the fifth removed bike for Tadej’s first would have to be even more crazier than that. One crash on that Colnago with all those drilled out bits and fins equals kabloey so you might as well just replace the bike over do a wheel swap. Shimano power meter??? Does the team know how unreliable they are? Cervelo’s, the paint job is very lovely, shocking to see it not being talked about. Also, how long they have stayed on that current iteration of bikes. Can’t wait to see the TT setup comparisons if that is coming in the future. I feel like that is the more spicier comparison.
I'm still running 34/27, 39/28. There are many climbs that I wish I had 1:1, but for the most part, I get by just fine. I did a 13% 0.7 mile climb on 34/27 and it was ok
@@tolitsdterrible4785 Yes, but only by 1cm, according to Pro Cycling Stats. AFAIK, Pogačar only switched to 165s recently - he was also riding 172.5s a few seasons ago.

The fact Visma have two bikes is significant. Appreciate there are nuances this video cannot account for but if we took the weight differential here then VRS 4 is 0.5kg heavier than the R5. If we believe Jonas to be 5-6kg lighter than Tadej then when it absolutely matters he may have another 3-400gs advantage from the bike. So to answer the question if I could have one bike to do it all I’d take the Colnago yet if the purpose is to win the Tour de France then Jonas with two bikes is better equipped!
The fact that even the best pro riders can't consistently ride 6.8 kg bikes anymoreq (let alone having to add ballast to bring them up to the legal limit like Contador used to) proves one of the many things wrong with this industry.

A caliper won't tell you the actual size of a tire. It's written on the tire sides. From there you may inflate or deflate and obviously measure will increase or decrease.
Who do you think will win the Tour? Pogačar, Vingegaard or someone else?
Jonas will pull it off
Tadej will have it in the bag
올해는 타데이😮
Jonas Vingegaard for sure! He is the smartest of the top 3 .
Pogi
A gear ratio of 52/10 equates to 57.2/11. As 11t is 10% larger than 10t, just add 10% to 52t as well👍

Is that the correct pronunciation of Bikone?
Not 100% sure - hadn't heard of Bikone before, so had to google it on the spot while we filming. Apologies if I got it wrong! Cheers for watching, Simon
Where were these road bikes with 30mm tyres and mtb cassettes 25 years ago?!
In a cyclocross field
What sizes are both bike frames?
Pogačar rides a size 485 Colnago (which is roughly like a 54cm bike from other brands) and Vingegaard rides a 54cm Cervelo. Cheers for watching, Simon
Vingegaars is the best bike! Go Visma-lease a bike
V4RS
We bike would be the most fun offroad
Another excellent bike walk-through. Jonas, you're busted with your illegally light bike!
it ain't the bike, it's the rider that mutters.
I seriously don’t get road bikes, like that shit you do to save weight, there is almost nothing to those break rotors (if I can call them rotors) on the first bike, I don’t get the pads grab because there is more hole space than rotor to grab on to
Didn’t think we’d see a bike under the UCI weight limit!
They are trying hard.😅
32,6 and 33,2 mm smh, why is he riding tires wider than cyclocross limit?
Could be the bike for the Gravel stage
Colnago all the way
Answer: Does not matter. The better legs are important.
Tadej bc Jonas is coming off injury
Dumb comment: why aren't the bottles aero?
Stage 11.... Cervelo was faster by half a wheel.... 😅
mathematics is not exactly a strength of your presenters?😎 "50:10 is the equivalent to 54:11 or 55:11"??? No, absolute not - it's the equivalent to 57:11 (precisely 57.2:11...)
They probably just take the chain off and clean the bike bare.
The weight of pogis aero bike is not very competitive
As I cannot afford either, whichever is given to me, I’ll gladly accept it; no fuss! 😅
I've been waxing my chains since 1976.
Shillin for hookless?
Nope, just explaining what happened in that one particular situation. Cheers for watching, Simon
I think T.P. WIN IF he NOT Crashing out or something ...
Absolute black claiming to have the best pads. Give them to hambini and peak torque and you will hear their most honest technical opinion.
The Colnago + setup is way cooler...
a full time bicycle journalist that fly to France doesn't know Enve 4.5 basic spec....
At lest he didn't say that Conti GP5000 are 5000 mm wide
Mea culpa - I got that one wrong, the correct rim depths for ENVE SES 4.5s is 50 and 56mm.
As always, we do our best to get everything right, but inevitably some mistakes will slip through the net when we're working quickly and trying to cover lots of stuff.
And just to clarify, this year's Tour started in Italy, not France 😉
Every measurements & details except CRANK LENGTHS !!
We want to see his S5, not R5
He wins on his R5 not S5.
@@janstephensss I did not realize he has won any stage this year (yet).
Unfortunately, we were only able to get access to his R5 this year, but if you want to check out his S5 then worth watching our video from last year's Tour: ruclips.net/video/hw-_D8nwd9s/видео.htmlsi=1KlQzBX6YpsHBMHf
Other than the paint job and a switch to the new SRAM Red AXS groupset, it won't have changed much. Cheers for watching, Simon
@@vanw1554 I am mentioning his previous wins. The tour is still just 5 stages. Get real.
@@vanw1554 so what now? Jonas just won a stage using what bike? The R5
A caliper won't tell you the actual size of a tire. It's written on the tire sides. From there you may inflate or deflate and obviously measure will increase or decrease.
That paint job on the Cervelo gets ruined by the decals.
Kinda….
Why does Tadej's bike say Richard Mille on it. LMAO
It’s a team sponsor
@@VinceEmond it's a personal sponsor of Tadej.
Absolute crap is a scam and hookless are a trip to the emergency room.
Ever notice how figure skaters dont talk about their skates??
Yeah, that's probably because skates are boring 😉 Bikes on the other hand... Cheers for watching, Simon
Tadej’s bike is junk, heavy, old style. The wheels are for mtb, no aero benefit also
MTB wheels 😂
Bike weight barely matters when ur doping
its not about bikes, its about who did more EPO injections
