    Could Pogačar Win On Any Bike? | GCN Tech Show Ep. 364



    Could Tadej Pogačar win the Tour de France on any bike? We’re asking the question because Colnago just unveiled a radical new aero bike, and it might make the fastest rider in the peloton, even faster! Plus, we’ve got updates on WorldTour groupsets, Tom Pidcock’s big transfer, and FSA’s sleek new carbon cranks.

      Y’all have definitely established with all your “testing”..The ONLY people that would gain or lose benefits from the advancements of the top tier bikes are the pros. Absolutely no one else is going to win or lose for having a modern “affordable” bike. The rider and their own aerodynamics is the only factor that “wins” all these “races” to the coffee shop that all us are competing in

      That blue bike looks like what I'd call a "fake" GIOS. At least not a made-in-Italy one. I have a few – the decal reads GIOS-TORINO. Alex might want to look up the history of the Brooklyn team with Roger De Vlaeminck in his spare time.

      I believe Pogi can win even on a sligtly lesser bike, but only if he continues training on his usual one. The better bike is essential for maintaining his training intensity. Without it, his fitness level might not be the same.

      You can also combine components. A 105 with a Dura-Ace chain and bottom bracket as well as an Ultegra cassette and ball bearing pulleys has no higher friction than a Dura-Ace. Actually, it makes little sense to install a 105 chain if the old one is worn out.
