Tour de France tech: The new bikes, tech and trends from the 2019 race

https://ift.tt/2MJwxdT

Egan Bernal (Team Ineos) became the youngest Tour de France winner in more than a century after 21 stages of racing, an unexpectedly long stint in the yellow jersey from Julian Alaphilippe (Deceuninck-QuickStep), an injury to Thibaut Pinot (Groupama-FDJ) that ended a true GC battle and some freak weather shortening two stages at the end of the race.

Alongside the captivating race, new bikes, tech, clothing, components and more were on show, plus the usual customisations of the latest national champions and special framesets for each of the race’s classification winners.

Here we take a look at all of the tech on show at the 2019 Tour de France, who won and with what, the winners and losers from bike and component manufacturers, plus all of Cyclingnews’ individual pro bikes from this year’s race.
