no idea - i didnt ride much bike in the 80's :)

 

Let me repost that... 'That shimano made from the late 80's through to the late 90's.'

 

I never found out because I only rode c-record and egg rings were not for the Italians. Shimano was for Americans and other commoners. ;)

Poor Cuddles. He is really struggling...

 

Had to leave as the the Yellow Jersey group reached the summit - did all of them stay together to the finish? Changes in top 10? Please?

His cadence really stood out. While Porte was still in front of him, they mentioned he was still in a lower gear compared to the others.

kill me. Froome's a doper!

Ok , a bit too harsh. But , it looks too good to be for real. The fact is, his times are as good as the "doped" LA. What kind of rider was Froome 3 years ago? John Lee Augustyn was better than Froome!

You still have no facts apart from your opinion and also have no idea what the training regime has been over the last 3 years, let alone the amount of testing that Froom has undergone prior and during this tour.

 

As has been said before, Froom and sky have a bad day and they have cracked and failed, have a good day and beat the rest, they are dopers!!

 

So as stated, you are opinionated and without fact
