If you can pedal you are not on empty :P Ask Ian Stanard or Luke Rowe. :P

ok. can you pedal fast enough to drag nino - looking at the interview he stills seems okee dokee 

but i get your point, if the kids were strong enough to hang there for the win, they should have burnt matches 2kms out to gain a few more seconds.

 

i don't think the issue was nino short of gas, but rather  stirneman needing to get to the line

They probably have different goals. Better for the brands if have 4 riders crossing line than one team slightly further ahead and one popped. 

 

Kudos to them for animating the race! 

 

So funny to see them on trails I have done and think how on earth did they go through there THAT fast... Maybe I have the wrong tyres that are too heavy, hey Myles :P

Sure? I was sure the Exo was the "reinforced" version, like Snakeskin. Which def isn't Control casing equivalent. But I could be wrong. 

 

Think so. EXO is effectively the first level in their reinforced carcasses.

I'm happy with control version tyres. but then again the WC vs EC terrain differ vastly.
