LOOK

[@Tommy31416]

@@KZbinfanahandlebar fail yesterday 😳 LOOK seem to have ditched their famed build quality. Also the speed wobbles on stage 14 descent didn’t exactly speak to a confidence inspiring bike. In 2 days I went from considering buying the frame to avoiding it like the plague.

[@Jari1973]

I have understood that in the middle of the overall competition all parts can be changed.. tires, rims, gears, saddle, handlebars.. is it still possible to change the frame??

[@Youtubefana]

@@Tommy31416 was not aware of the speed wobble. What time did that happen do you remember?

[@Tommy31416]

@@KZbinfana it was the descent before the last climb - there was a shot from the back of the peloton and one of the Cofidis riders had unbelievable speed wobble on a straight before a corner. I think it was just as the front group were about to start the final climb (stage 14)

[@oquendojo]

man, the white/pink decals on the wheels look sick when running. amazing

[@lucjanssen6096]

Get well soon, Richard! Hope to see you back on this awesome bike again soon

[@lesflynn4455]

It has a threaded BB??????? Wow, it's about time. I haven't had a non creaky BB since I last had a threaded BB on a Ribble Audax winter trainer which the previous owner had brought over from UK to Oz, then sold to me. It was such a good bike. I loved it. Then I crashed it too hard and broke the frame.

[@jascollinscork]

What was its weight Si????????

[@edmundhodgson2572]

love the paint

[@The2808erik]

Power2max best power meter. Stages dual sided is great too but more expensive.

[@McLovin38FFs]

If “Mr Cannondale” is watching I could never afford one but would love one in size XL! 😉

[@Mike0]

Carapaz won the olympic road race on a 6.8kg Pinarello rim brake bike

[@georgerand6343]

He won it with his legs and his head.

[@VanillaSky23ffm]

Looks like bodged together out of spares 😅 His Pinarello was a much more beautiful paint job

[@savagepro9060]

@@georgerand6343 no, his legs, his head, and a bike, amidst a flurry of disc brake bikes, silly

[@realekm]

WOut has an 8kg bike and he still wins stages. Weight is overrated. Not much between weights of 6-8kg imo

[@richiejames928]

Best looking bike in the peloton by a long long way.

[@cyclonutterd7075]

What about the weight mate, cummon Si 😂

[@savagepro9060]

Carapaz being a small rider, yet rides with 40mm handlebars, proves not everybody flows with the current hype!

[@Mike0]

He rode 42mm MOST bars on the Pinarello for his Olympic gold too

[@johnterry5409]

Still reasonably small though compared with the old days.

[@jonathanzappala]

Vision only makes the 38cm version with a 80 or 90mm stem, he has no smaller choice.

[@gregmuon]

Veterans will remember when bars came in only two sizes: 38 or 40.

[@PedroPrego]

​@@jonathanzappalahow to ruin a aggressive comment 😁

[@benoittheminerandgamer]

All the TDF rider use the wahoo elemnt roam v2 ?? What kind of bike computer they use? Do we know all the brand and model?

[@jonathanzappala]

Dc rainmaker made a video spying out every computer and powere meter used at the grand depart, check it out.

[@caet49]

Where is the momo one piece bar/stem?

[@bradrogers2427]

EF Education is sponsored by Vision so they use the Vision one piece bar/stem instead of the Cannondale Momo bar.

[@Mattytube18]

That fork resembles Factor’s Ostro VAM

[@bigunitcyling]

How light is the bike? I say 7.8 kg is new 6.8 kg these days in the peloton.

[@matthiaswuest7271]

I'd guess not much more than 7 kg as shown -- very small, super light frame, even with discs

[@bradrogers2427]

In that size it's sub 7kg for sure, with a 770g (for a painted 56) frame you should be able to hit 6.8kg, though I'm sure that paint job isn't lightweight.

[@bigunitcyling]

If you are 5 figures for a road bike it should be below the minimum UCI weight.

[@matthiaswuest7271]

@@bigunitcyling I personally think they should lower the UCI weight limit by a good kilo or so to encourage more lightweight innovation, but as things stand most teams seem perfectly happy to sit 500-1000 grams above for better aerodynamics. As for the everyday rider, that's all personal preference 😊

[@LegSpinna]

Might have a sceatch or two on it now.

[@chrischambers4563]

Mathieu van der Poel!!

[@cyclonutterd7075]

Mads Pederson's Project 1 Madone - simply stunning. I'm a Bianchi fanboy, but the latest Oltre XR is just so ugly, I haven't heard a kind word about it yet - what were they thinking.

[@savagepro9060]

Sound check = a disturbed beehive🐝🐝🐝🐝!

[@kaupo80]

"Faster by 12W". Since when is watt a measure of speed?

[@Youtubefana]

LOOK

[@tr4nnel752]

Companies that claim a 12 watt gain over a year iteration don't get my money.

[@larrygrossman8021]

Surest way to make a bike faster is to put Carapaz on it

[@douglasbooth6836]

The wide bars are stupid, the wide tires are stupid too for a climber.

[@PaventiRealEstate]

What's the size?

[@savagepro9060]

Cannondale SuperSix EVO Lab71 . . . hmm🤔🤨 I guess that makes Carapaz . . . a Lab Rat?🤣😂

[@laobe5119]

Hi

[@devinmorrison7131]

I get why they didn't weigh it, this is Cannondale's heaviest Supersix ever made.

[@meshuggah0014]

Cofidis

[@patrice169]

présenter un vélo sans donner son poids, il y a certainement "anguille sous roche" !!!

[@Polar-sq3wt]

Nobody cares about freehub sound, we were waiting for the weight ;)

[@philippbeckonert1678]

: The paint job is terrible. Show some pride when you're the olympic champion and bling the bike out a little... or more like give that man a chance to show more pride. Not a fan.

[@tomfloyd4489]

Who cares what the free hub sounds like as long as it performs? Seems a bit adolescent.

[@jonathanzappala]

Watt and a half for golf all pedals? I call bs, what if your a toe down peddler, nothing is presented to the wind. Toe up, level, too many variables. Prove it with a dynamic peddler in the wind tunnel beyond a margin for error.

[@edymarkonthego4096]

The bike look pretty good but the rider isn’t.😅
