Just a slightly longer front wheel. Preferably an ellipse shape.Ewan needs to try a bigger bike
Just a slightly longer front wheel. Preferably an ellipse shape.
Maybe a caterpillar track on the outside rim of the wheel, so the wheel can stay horizontal at all times.But then you'd need to make sure it's in the right position during the sprint. Tricky stuff.

Lotto should just start working on a wheel extension system that could be employed near the finish line. Together with DSM's tyre pressure system, you'd be able to win races from miles away.
Add in a feature like Viviani:
Of course the wheel would have to stay attached to the bike for it to work.
I would contest the hell out of that. Lawyer up. WTF.Illegal finishline, a misplaced camera and this blurry photo. Must be great to be Ewan.

How is it possible that anno domini 2023 this sport is still incapable of fully determining who did or did not win? It is outright scandalous.

A coin flip is always better than equality.This.
Same in UAE, for me.
