@TeflonDub the profile of the TTT here http://www.procyclingstats.com/race.php?id=149949&c=6&stat_id=217
Last 2k uphill. I don't Nico Roche was a big fan of the decision to carry extra weight over the last stretch that day. But I remember that TTT so well, EVERY time they cut to Sky, Froome was on the front. Every time. He nearly had to go back and tow Roche across the line.CTQ said:@TeflonDub the profile of the TTT here http://www.procyclingstats.com/race.php?id=149949&c=6&stat_id=217
Yes. Which is why Team Sky explained the 800g difference over competitors is a well-documented characteristic of the bikes supplied by Pinarello. Oh, wait...DamianoMachiavelli said:You all do realize that a long time knock against Pinarello has been the frames are heavy and builds often come in above the UCI limit? I guess not.

I am talking road frames. Pinarello has listed bogus weights for its frames, and real builds come out considerably heavier than expected. I don't know about 2015 frames.StryderHells said:TT bikes used in that 2015 stage 9 TTTDamianoMachiavelli said:You all do realize that a long time knock against Pinarello has been the frames are heavy and builds often come in above the UCI limit?

Frame and Fork weights
Pinarello Boldie Frame 1100g Fork 360g
BMC TM01 Frame 1330g Fork 580g
Look Monoblade Frame 1100 Fork 350g (made a mistake in my original post and the look isn't heavier than the Boldie)
Cervelo P5s Frame 1300g Fork 450g
The Pinarello frame and fork comes in lighter than the stage winning BMC TM01
I'm not saying that this is proof of moto fraud but more saying that the Pinarello if heavier than say the BMC it shouldn't be 800 grams heavier, I have my doubts with the 60 minutes report as it gives no other bikes weight details so it's hard to go through the overall spec's from that TT to get a rough estimate of what the bikes should weigh.DamianoMachiavelli said:I am talking road frames.

Trying to prove motor use because of ITT bike weights is asinine. This is dumber than idjits trying to prove dope use by average TdF speeds.
So what happened to the marginal gains? Seems like a handicap instead. No wonder they never win anything. Oh hold it a minute.DamianoMachiavelli said:You all do realize that a long time knock against Pinarello has been the frames are heavy and builds often come in above the UCI limit? I guess not.

They said team sky bikes were the only ones that were significantly heavier. The other bikes weren't the same weight.pastronef said:Sky bikes where 800 grams heavier than THE OTHER BIKES
so all the other peloton TT bikes (180 of them) had the same weight.
the official weighed all the TT bikes
just Sky bikes weighed 800 grams more that the other 180 bikes.
so Sky bikes were 800 grams heavier compared to WHICH other bikes?carolina said:They said team sky bikes were the only ones that were significantly heavier. The other bikes weren't the same weight.pastronef said:Sky bikes where 800 grams heavier than THE OTHER BIKES
