World Championships bikes: Mathieu van der Poel's Canyon Aeroad
Van der Poel to use Tour of Britain-winning Aeroad in his tilt at the rain☂bow jersey













Despite recently being seen testing a new, yet-to-be-released Canyon at the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Primus Classic and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Gooikse Pijl, Mathieu van der Poel will return to the bike he raced to victory at the Tour of Britain in Sunday's tilt for success at the UC🌳I World Road Championships.
Shortly after a traini🐼ng ride a couple of days ahead of the 280km race, Cyclingnews had five minutes with the Dutchman's bike - comp🌃lete with Yorkshire's grit from Van der Poel's penultimate preparation recce.
Van der Poel has already had what can only be described as an extraordinary 2019 season, in which he has a phenomenal win percentage across cyclo-cross, mountain biking, and in his first season on the road for the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Corendon-Circus team.
In 2019, Van der Poel has won every cyclo-cross race he's entered an🦂d more than 80 per cent of his mountain bike starts. Ahead of the Road World Championships, Van der Poel has 28 race days on the road. He has won 10 of them, which is an astonishing 34% win rate.
The one that everyone remembers, however, is the last race of his spring classics campaign, Amstel Gold. Th✤e power produced in that finale is beyond anything we've seen. For the fina🤡l hour of the six and a half hour race, Van der Poel averaged 340 watts. During this time he spent the final 12 minutes at 425 watts and the final four minutes at 481 watts. In the finale, while acting as his own leadout train, he averaged 863 watts for 42 seconds. The sprint itself was a 15-second affair, where he averaged 1222 watts and peaked at 1400.
