Well done with more detail than usual. A good video for those of us that build our own bikes to check our technique.

Funny thing is Ferrand-Prevost will probably never ride it. https://www.teamvismaleaseabike.com/new ... %C3%A9vot/

Could have put this is the gravel CX forum, or perhaps the Pro thread. Decided to split the difference and dump it here in Chat. Mods, do with it as you will.

She's joining VLaB in 2025.
2024 Gravel World Champs has yet to take place.
She has said she's retiring from MTB and CX to exclusively race on road, but I could see her lumping in gravel with road.

it will be interesting to see what she rides on gravel in the near term. Easy to imagine Cervelo pushing hard, but I guess it depends on the fine print in her deal with Pinarello - she might indeed have no choice. That Grevil is quite nice.

She’s signed with Ineos until Dec 31, 2024 and will be riding Pinarellos in public until then. I’m sure she’ll be receiving Cervelos to test-fit and secretly train on soon if not already. Specialized secretly flew Roglic out to Morgan Hill for fitting and aero testing before last year’s Vuelta.
