I guess that if you walk with your bycicle in that 31% climb you will go faster.

It pisses me off how fast they are.
Realistically what's the natty limit?

>>78082181
Wiggins hour record is 54.526 km on track, not many better than him.
You may greentext >natty now.

>>78082181
rule of thumb is if you can't do it, then it must be cheating

>>78082247
Damn, they're all cheating!

>>78082247
This is on the same level as those kenyans finishing marathons in two hours.
99.9% of bikes in the world (including high-end bikes) don't come with chainrings big enough to achieve that speed without going over 90rpm.

I think that if Froome and Nibali switched teams the fight for the 1st place wouldn't be over at this time. How many times did you see Froome going by himself?

50x11, the bottom end gear on a compact crank (smaller than the pros ever use is 51.5 km/h at 90 RPM. (on 700x25 tyres).

Also something interesting is that wiggin's cadence for the hour record was way higher than 90. Something like 105 iirc.

The chainrings have nothing to do with it, it's the absurd amount of aero kit and bike (alongside lods e powa of course)

I'm just making an example mate. A semi-compact would give the TTers the high gear they need on the flats, which is what most bikes seem to come with these days.
Of course a flatlander would have no use for low gears.

Some of the tops were using 56s.
Even track Shimanos don't come that big. Campis not even close.

>>78083015
I think you can buy 56s but they're hard to find
In one of the recent GCN videos they were specifically using 58s which apparently come from shimano but look unfinished, they have none of the detailling

It's Nibali weather. What's the shark up to today? Imo he will force Froome into an error on the downhill

You don't get a massive chainring for the high gear. You get one so you can run that perfect chainline at your desired speed for marginal efficiency gains.
