    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    Did I mention any W/KG estimations from Ammattipyoraily or LR? I just gave you his average power - 450 W, his average speed and the duration and length of the segment. I also gave you his race weight. You do the simple maths and you get the result. It's not hard, mate.

    https://www.threads.net/@veloncc/post/C7Zeww2ua64 Pog's weight at the Giro is at most 65 kgs. This means he did 6.92 W/Kg for 15 min 31 secs in the last 5.7 kms of Grappa. Nice training ride for the Tour where he is supposed to be 1 kg lighter. Special present for @Froome and for the bald fraud...

    Tadej Pogacar and Mauro Giannetti

    What are you talking about, man? Kuss?! Really? He would be wrecked the same way Dani was. You can't keep repeating the same slogan 'the competition was too weak' over and over again. In Catalunya Pog wrecked different riders the same way. Rogla and Remco would be crushed in this Giro. I am 100...

    I have a feeling this race will be an absolute joke. Pathetic parcour, we missed the top guns on stage 1 and now we get to enjoy some 3rd tier riders. Nice.

    If Remco brings his top San Sebastian shape he is undroppable even on stage 6. However he probably won't be at that level.

    Why do you hate Pogacar, Froomie? I am a Pog fan but I also respect Jonas and I love his attacking style and the way he crushes riders. So why do you hate Pogacar so much?

    Teams & Riders Tadej Pogačar discussion thread

    I started following this thread more seriously about 20 days ago when I first read the ridiculous claims and posts of this guy mou. When I saw that there is something behind these claims I became interested and in the mean time this thread exploded.
