In fact, Cannondale love to point out that production bikes are “illegally light”. Team liaison Rory Mason was quick to point out the custom solid steel spindle used on Sagan’s
bike to bring it up to the UCI’s minimum weight of 6.8kg (14.99lb).
Steel is real. Here, sagan has a 400g steel spindle to make his total bike weight race legal. also, his sram red derailleur has a sram force steel cage branded red.
“Last year we added the weight inside the seat tube,” Mason said. “But some riders – Ivan Basso, in particular – felt that the bike’s handling was affected by having the extra weight that high in the bike, so we moved it down.”
A toto je dobre.
To keep things tidy, Sagan has clear stickers on his crank arms to avoid scuff marks from his shoes. After all, one must keep things looking good when the bike is coming first across the line so often.
