About this episode

The episode compares the advancements in Tour de France bikes from 2016 to 2026.

Thanks to Wahoo Fitness for sponsoring this podcast. In this bonus episode of the BikeRadar Podcast, Simon and Warren chat about the crazy difference a decade of race bike development makes, by comparing Tadej Pogačar's 2026 Tour de France-winning Colnago Y1Rs and Chris Froome's 2016 race-winning Pinarello Dogma F8. They get right into the details of the designs and the tech shifts we've seen, before finally deciding which bike they'd rather have, given the choice. Learn more about your ad choices.
