I think it was his legs and stamina who won this race :D I am sure he could have won on my bike aswell :)

Two years ago, they did it with Bianchi Oltre. So it was not about the bike. They can win with any bikes as long as they have a similar weight n racing geometry.

R5 and P5 won the tour S5 is definitely what the team gets told to push in marketing

I am surprised, they could choose what pedals they used, as it makes bike swaps more difficult, and we know how good Jumbo Visma were at that.😊

Bradley Wiggins famously liked Speedplay pedals and won on them in 2012!

The tour was won on speed play pedals under Carlos Sastre, and Andy Schleck not long ago. They were also on Cervelo bikes. The commenter has a short memory.

One of the luxuries they get is being able to swap out the gearing etc depending on the stage

@@kpsig I am just being flippant. Apart from the TT bike in stage 16, Jonas won this year's tour in stage 17 on the R5. Since mountain stages are the most crucial ones in any grand tour, R5 is obviously much more important to a GC rider than the S5.
