2021 PRO equipment thread

yeah she looks as efficient and aero as one can be on a small frame

Could be a left Stages or 4iiii. She definitely knows what’s up equipmentwise though, choosing Centerline XR rotors over Shimano IceTech.

Oddly I think her fit looks a bit cramped. She needs a long reach with that straight, unarched back. Her elbows are pointing backward when she is on both the hoods and in the drops. Admittedly she is “on the rivet” in the second photo, but even if she scoots back to a normal seated position, her arms would still be pointing backward.

Also Red cranks on Shimano drivetrain.

Wrong thread.

The bike of Anna Kiesenhofer looks to be dialed.
Bars look to be Farsports?

Lucky the mech didn't get ripped off with the chain being too short.

Side view looks like an assioma with the wording on the spindle bolt, but the rear sprint bolt on the assioma should be black and not silver, so I cant be sure.

Interesting. I wonder why the SRAM Red Crankset? I assume it's slightly lighter than Dura-Ace? I assume you see something like this in the Olympics rather than on the world tour as there aren't as many sponsors.

Also, are those Continintal GP5000 clinchers?

Maybe that position is for aero gains

Saw another photo and it’s definitely Assiomas

Lighter cranks and/or she had it laying around. Olympics or not, she's not on a pro team and has no sponsors so she can ride whatever she wants and pay for it or whatever she has access to.

Doing some quick research it looks like the SRAM Red Crankset is 609g and the Shimano Dura-Ace is 614g so a weight savings, but not that much of one. My guess there was something she liked better about the SRAM Crank such as a differnt gear ratio or crank leangth than the one the bike came with or the Dura Ace crank needed replacing and that's what she had availible. Either way it's an interesting and cool choice. Who would have thought we'd see the winner of an Olympic road bike race with a frankenbike setup such as this.

[Dan Gerous]

Yeah, the SRAM Red 11sp crankset is lighter but only in the BB30 variant and mostly when you take into account the lighter BB too, I'm guessing the Scott's BB is not PF/BB30. I once used a similar setup but not for weight or performance reasons, I had to quickly build a bike for a trip over to Europe the night before my flight so I just went with what I had, so I used a Red BB30 crank, Red cassette on a DA Di2 9000 groupset, rode it like that for months, it works pretty much as well as the stock setup.

I also received a marketing email this morning from Farsports to boast she used their F1 bars so that is confirmed.

Anyone have good pictures of WvA's green Cervelo R5? I saw Vos riding that in that paintjob too. Wonder if that's the production paint

Is the correct chain lenght

[ryanw]

No it's not.
