Teams & Riders The Remco Evenepoel is the next Eddy Merckx thread

But nobody uses his weight as an excuse when he doesn't win.

I think you've made your point by now.

According to his own words up to 67 kg in early season classics and 64-65 kg for the Tour. Obviously even with early season weight (66-67 kg) he easily smashes stage-races. As for 67 kg for the cobbles it looks like a reasonable compromise considering he has to peak for the Tour afterwards.

Sure, my point is just that their weight is also discussed in relation to performance in some races.

Where, when and how often? 🤔

So who do you all think would win if they rode the Tour alone?
If they kept all the stages and parcours, but you had to ride every stage solo without a peloton.
Just them and their bike, needing to finish every stage as quick as possible.

21 ITT stages with 30 minutes between the riders at each stage?

Pogacar. He did it in 2020 (and he was alone in the Vuelta 2019) and last year he raced alone in the European Championships. I'm not saying the World Championships because people will say Del Toro , but we already saw how much he needed it in the European Championships.
He also rode alone a race like Roubaix in his first participation. He's a rider who handles himself well on his own.

Pogacar blindfolded, with a cold and probably only 1 leg needed.
