Tour de France 2026

Watched a GCN vid yesterday on the cost of the TDF bikes setups.

Absolutely insane.

Cheapest is the Intermarche' Cube at +/- 8 400 Pounds (R205 000)

Most expensive is the UAE Colnago at +/- 13 300 Pounds (R325 000)

Many pros are running custom stuff one their bikes which will double those prices.

Maybe, maybe not. 
If so then that’s another extra chunk. 
But the amount that is spent on details is substantial, carbon-ti chainrings ect…

Understanding prices are with most of the custom stuff. 

But true, sure there are differences.

On top of that, I saw an Instagram video showing that Intermarché has 25 road bikes and 16 time trial bikes - so the assumption is that each team has around 40 bikes.

it would something special to get them around a campfire with a few lagers and here the stories. Both class acts

So... do we think Remco could end the day in yellow? Pogacar's terrible TT (by his standards) at the Dauphine has left me not knowing what to think. Not sure what happened there and I doubt it will happen again. But this TT is twice as long and very suited to Remco.

Barring fate, I reckon that’s the ball game. 
 

 

[DieselnDust]

i think that question has been answered

Today’s podium turnaround was very fast 😂
