Where did you get that picture?
I guess that if you walk with your bycicle in that 31% climb you will go faster.
Froomey's got this

polka dot blue jersey incoming
We haven't seen domination like this since Lance Armstrong
that's a really really interesting point
Especially when you take into account the fact that Lance Armstrong never won the TdF and Vuelta in the same season
>you now remember Andrew Talansky
>'''''''''''''''''''''retiring at 28'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Wow lol. What is his reason?
the mystery deepens
of course armstrong basically didn't ride after the tour finish, but that's not important
None, he didn't say a thing
fuck chains
fuck derailleurs
fuck brakes
none, new challange blah blah

wait until the merchant sees this post
And the Canadian is top 10. All of my keks.
>averaging over 51kmh in a 45 minute time trial
It pisses me off how fast they are.
Realistically what's the natty limit?
Wiggins hour record is 54.526 km on track, not many better than him.
You may greentext >natty now.
rule of thumb is if you can't do it, then it must be cheating
Damn, they're all cheating!
This is on the same level as those kenyans finishing marathons in two hours.
99.9% of bikes in the world (including high-end bikes) don't come with chainrings big enough to achieve that speed without going over 90rpm.
Time to turn the doping up to 11
>he cycles natty
What's the name of that stream again lads?
Tiz-cycling or cricfree
safe senpai
Maybe Froome is just better than everyone else on merit.
Maybe Froome just wants it more
I think that if Froome and Nibali switched teams the fight for the 1st place wouldn't be over at this time. How many times did you see Froome going by himself?
NIGGER
u fuckin wot m8
50x11, the bottom end gear on a compact crank (smaller than the pros ever use is 51.5 km/h at 90 RPM. (on 700x25 tyres).
Also something interesting is that wiggin's cadence for the hour record was way higher than 90. Something like 105 iirc.
The chainrings have nothing to do with it, it's the absurd amount of aero kit and bike (alongside lods e powa of course)
>falling for the compact meme
I'm just making an example mate. A semi-compact would give the TTers the high gear they need on the flats, which is what most bikes seem to come with these days.
Of course a flatlander would have no use for low gears.
>facts
not welcome here
Yes well done on making it this far...
HOWEVER
>no traction lol
>impying they don't have motors
annual spanish gurning competition
facts are simple and facts are straight
facts are lazy and facts are late
facts all come with points of view
facts don't do what I want them to
Some of the tops were using 56s.
Even track Shimanos don't come that big. Campis not even close.
I think you can buy 56s but they're hard to find
In one of the recent GCN videos they were specifically using 58s which apparently come from shimano but look unfinished, they have none of the detailling
It's Nibali weather. What's the shark up to today? Imo he will force Froome into an error on the downhill
>Deadly descent
NOICE
>Deadly descent and a deadly ascent
FTFY
Here we go
Kill Froome in the fog
This weather, this descent.
>20m visibility.
>Wet deadly descent.
YES.
stage finish in scotland today lads
>No time gap
>No images
>The state of Vuelta
This is cyclo-KINO
Needs a big crash or death for it to elevate it's status.
Froome off a cliff when?
