Here is the Dream Build of the Colnago V4Rs Rosa built for the Maglia Rosa Tadej Pogacar, winner of Il Giro d'Italia 2024. #Colnago #V4Rs #BuiltToWin #MagliaRosa #pogacar
So beautiful to bring all of this together! I do prefer Pog’s black with pink combination, however. Black bike, pink accents. Really something special. I ride a 1980s era Colnago Mexico so I’m partial to Ernesto’s bikes…
I ride Colnago since 1980 had them all.Colnago Super same frame Saronni Won world at Goodwood,still have it. I had C40/50/59 150 anniversary/Flight/Master,etc.etc. Ciao from Italy
Fun fact, high end cycling equipment has about a 40% profit margin. Their marketing is so well done. It's ridiculously expensive, and we are still going to buy it.
given their average speeds, assuming you don't want to use the hardest cogs for chainline & efficiency, and assuming you want a comfortable cadence, 55T makes sense. I have 52T and it's just too small on the flat. But i dont have the legs to have a big small ring on climbs.
The size is 48.5 undersized for Pogi's height. but if he used a frame suitable for his height he would not be able to pedal with such a forward saddle position
It's really incredible to see Tadej winning and putting in this huge gaps albeit being on a very inferior frame. If he'd be on a competitive bike the gaps would be even more impressive
IT USED TO BE GREAT WHEN THEY HAD CAMPAGNOLO SUPER RECORD EPS, BUT FOR SOME REASON THEY LET SHIMA(NO!) TAKE OVER? CAMPAGNOLO USED TO BE LAUGHED AT FOR BEING NOT AS GOOD AS SHIMA(NO!), BUT UAE PROVED PEOPLE WRONG, BY GIVING THE "MIDDLE" FINGER! WE NOW HAVE A SITUATION WITH NO CAMPAGNOLO PRO TEAM, AND CAMPAGNOLO BEING A LUXURY BRAND LIKE GUCCI!? I AM GLAD TO SAY THAT BOTH MY ITALIAN-MADE COLNAGO & BIANCHI SPECIALISSIMA BOTH HAVE CAMPAGNOLO SUPER RECORD EPS! I EVEN SAVED A CUSTOM ORANGE PAINT BIANCHI BIKE, BY GETTING RID OF THE AWFUL EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING SHIMA(NO!) DURA-ACE, AND REPLACING WITH NEW 12-SPEED CAMPAGNOLO SUPER RECORD EPS/WTO WHEELS, ETC! EVEN MY VIRTUALLY NEW MARCO PANTANI REPLICA BIKE, HAS CAMPAGNOLO RECORD, LIKE HE USED!
We know how that finish, the handlebar was not align with the front wheel… very surprise to see pro rider ride a new bike composants during competitions without training tests
Yeah looks like it pre beds new pads in so the riders get the familiar braking they are used too when the mechanics change the pads for them. no suprises.
