Thanks to Wahoo for sponsoring this video.
Jonas Vingegaard is back at the 2026 Tour de France in top form and he’s got a featherweight aero bike to help him take on Tadej Pogačar.
In this video, Simon delves deep into every detail about Vingegaard’s custom Cervélo S5 and reveals it weighs just 6.8kg – spot on the UCI’s minimum bike weight limit.
Whatever happens in this year’s race for the yellow jersey, Vingegaard will surely be confident he’s got one of the best bikes in the peloton.

To closed to UCI limit for confort XD
Let's hope they add 250 grams to account for the UCI being unscrupulous losers ☺️
Jonas must have switched to160mm crank from 155 just to get to the minimum weight limit 🤣.
I need the music to be louder please
One big crash, one big cracked frame!
crazy build, imo should have a 2x setup and no paint. that would make it approx 6.9kg and much more efficient gears for mechanical efficiency. slight aero penalty. but can run that the whole tour
fakest measurement i ever saw
That frame looks tiny.
Reserve wheels have bigger internal/external witdth for the front, that is why wider tire is used for front wheel. Real tire measured width will be bigger than 30, 29 mm respectively.
oddball question after the women's Giro – what happens if you're bang on the weight limit but you have to take a spare wheel – especially if it's a neutral care spare – and that wheel happens to be a bit lighter than what you started with? are the UCI going to be idiots again?
No way that 6.800. No team would take that sort of risk
It wont be light with a 100kg dentist sat on it 😊
Jonas looks muscular this year.
Mountains are high, not tall.
lets hope he doesn;t get disqualified when the tyres wear down by 1 or 2 grams!
6.8 with the bottles in ? That's a sub 6.8
Nice Garmin 850 on a Wahoo sponsored video 😂
It's weird how Visma LAB seems to be the only team regularly riding ~45mm deep wheels. You'd think that they would be the last ones to give up those 2-3 watts of aerodynamic drag to drop 200g. At Paris roubaix Franziska Koch was on 60mm wheels while the two other Visma LAB riders were on the 42/49. You'd think the wheel choice would've made a difference in the sprint finish.
Is that Jonases Mrs in the background?
Cut the music please this video is unbearable.
That paint job is just horrific honestly. The fade-in of the dots is just not good looking!
Stem length?
Handlebar width?
Bike size?
I think turn the music up a bit more and take your mic completely off.
6.8 kg is nice but if Jonas toss the bidons in a climb going to be dq in the Tdf😂😂😂
Sweet bike, shame the tires fall off.
Louder music please!!!
Please lose this god-awful music. Otherwise, nice presentation and a sharp looking bike!
I would like this one with rimbrakes
no measurement his saddle height setup big dissapointment simon
WTF is the editor smoking with this music choice and volume haha
