Join us as we follow Tom Pidcock and the team for an intense few days of mountain bike testing in Girona. - Спорт
Tom Pidcock & Egan Bernal in a future Cape Epic. Just a dream.
teams in the future may look at this as smart marketing
tho LANCE was good at this - LEADVILLE 100
would flippin love to see that
Against Morton & Howes 👍🏻
With Van der Poel would be an achievable duo
BMC Frame, with Suntour suspensions. Then DT Swiss, Duke, and Scott Silverton wheels, they don't look a lot like the Team sponsors 😂
It was uncommon to watch a video about dialing a bike in that really featured the rider and was no bike ad. Kind of suspicious though.
Geez, i was really struggling with the bike, saw the suntour suspension which just seems weird to me, wasn't really looking at the wheels until you mentioned them.
Pinarello should get back at making mountainbikes!
If you pause on 1:44 you can see the duke logo on the rim, so no silverton wheels
Yes but at 3:59 we can see the Silverton SL wheels
One day Tom should test with Egan, which was also a mountain bike racer. Great vido, and I will copy the trail running :)
Great that Kurt B is still involved in “Project Tom”. He’s been so fundamental to his success it makes sense to continue his involvement.
Also, makes you realise the kind of amazing resources and commitment INEOS has when it will send a whole bunch of staff and assets to test with one rider.
Someone with experience in maintaining these unfamiliar disc brakes, and, even worse, suspension was needed.
Awesome stuff, really loving the new Ineos Grenadiers philosophy. This team is full of talent and characters, from Ganna to Dennis and the signing of Tom and allowing him to showcase his incredible talent!! Smash it in the MTB season Tom, will make the Olympics really interesting with another head to head with MVP!
I'm very impressed by Tom's composure and maturity for someone his age. He always makes the races fun to watch.
Pidcock vs Van der Poel in mtb world cups.. it will be an interesting year!
Today was epic!
MTB! Finally, Ineos! Good luck! I love riding my mountain bike in Brazil and I´m a Ineos/Sky big fan since 2010. Go for it, Tom!
Thanks Wander!
you know, I honestly never liked team sky, but I am loving the Ineos Grenadiers......these videos, the signing of pidcock, Love it:) You guys should race some of the alternate calendar like EF,,,,Dirty Kanza, Leadville, etc
Is there anything Tom can't do ? Cyclocross , Road , MTB... super talented guy
Yeah, tom, MVDP and WVA are the most versatile riders in the pro peloton
@@slahudeenhussain5297 true!

@@darinsteele7091 not anymore
He's also the current E-MTB world Champion
Love this kind of video👍🏻👍🏻
Tom is such a champion, he can do anything with a bike!
Great to see him still smashing his MTB hope you're sorting out a Pinerello Cyclo-cross bike for him as I'd love to see one.... How about a Pinerello MtB to much to hope for I imagine.. Keep pushing Tom
Gorgeous! I love mountains! We are surrounded by mountains and hiking trails in Tucson, Arizona where I live, but I like watching other people’s videos and vlogs about their adventures in other places. Thanks for sharing! I’m following!
Sounds amazing! 🙌
Great to see the Ineos on MTB, really awesome. I'm greatful for see Tom and Ineos back on MTB.
Now we know Ineos is going back on MTB, if you can send Tom for events like DK, Downieville 100 and others (without compromise road obligations) it would be really awesome.
And please keep showing us the Team Ineos. Can't wait to see Bernal in the mountains of Italy
I think its fantastic that Ineos are allowing him to do MTB and (hopefully) 'cross too.... fair play to them
I don’t exactly think it’s what they wanted but I’m sure Pidcock insisted on being able to have freedom and since Ineos wanted him on the road they were willing to let him do the rest.
Two of my favourite characters in cycling - nice one, Ineos.
Tom Pidcock wearing the Dutch orange in honour of Mvdp, great guy.
*Heavy when full*Excellent !! Made mywife very happy !!
Always thought he'd be a good mountain biker. Great handling skills with great fitness.
Awesome! Can't wait to see Tom & the team in the XC MTB WCs. Multi discipline riding is the best. Next up, an INEOS Women's Team... #LiveToRide #TeamYorkshire
Hell yeah Tom!
First time I saw Tom in real time was at the cross worlds a few years ago in Valkenberg, track side cheering him on next to me was this other British guy getting really into it, I said you must be a big fan? He said I'm his dad! Won't forget those worlds he was special then and he's just getting better and having fun doing it - chapeau TP
What a ride yesterday 💪🏻
Sure was!
Looking forward to seeing a Pinarello mountain bike too.....it would look amazing, but how much would that be LOL!
Saludos desde Cali Colombia gracias y felicitaciones
cool road teams are looking at diversity for riders and makes mountain biking exciting
what a lad!
Perfect
Gold medal 😀
“Feels like a nice bike”
oh man first thought was that pinarello made some mtb prototype but now i think that it should be bmc but super interesting choice considering the backround with sworks
What a long old school stem for a young gun! I am not a big fan myself of the this new short stem trend on XC bikes... Pretty impressive start of the WC Tom!
Ineos must be getting into Cyclocross with a new Team
Nice one Go get Um Tom
State of the art high tech testing program. "um I don't know the suspension just feels hard".
Nice!
Nice to see his man Kurt has come across from trinity
Reminds me of how I was 40 years ago, I wish!! 😉🚲
😂
Tom...you got to enter a world xc round...that would be interesting!👍🏴
He is down for World Cups this year, check his schedule
@@Kosmonooit Wow..that should be explosive!..thanks for informing me
Is the frame a BMC?
Gearing up for that MTB Olympic Gold then ;-)
I did wonder what equipment Tom would be using; completely different from Trinity (Specialized, Sram, etc)
Nice to see a sighting of the Pinarello Crossista......
Unbranded BMC's as a shimano bike for them this year?
Love to see Pidcock and Wurf race over a 70.3, looks like Pidcock can do anything, multi talented chap. Great video
The future has arrived
nice insight - thought of using a shockwhizz?
bom trabalho
Can we know which wheels won the shootout? Duke? Silverton-SL? DT-Swiss?
Question: They said they're testing the gear, but Pinarello doesn't even have xc bikes and for me it looked like some bmc frame and also the other components weren't from one of ineos sponsors idk. Do what is happening, does anyone know?
But it's amazing to see such a great chracter like Pidcock doing such crazy trails...
Yeah anyone know what frame? BMC ?
at the start Pidcock is like pup in a group of big dogs but as the race goes this pup start shredding and turning into a fucking beast
how in holy hell does he ride with no gloves on ESI grips? I've tried it, once you start to sweat it's like trying to hold a wet bar of soap...covered in butter.
50kg! long inclines must be fantastic for him (relative to the competition).
Astig.
What size of frame does he use ? Someone knows ?
Go on tom
Should Ask some informations to Absalon team
Big big big
Minute 3.38....new oakley prototype sunglasses??.
I think they are testing disc brake possible for the road bike!! 👀👀👀
Why not test the Pina Dogma XC or XM 9.9?
dat boi is fast
Este es el rey de la bicicleta
the climbs looked easy because of him
Omg
What Pro stem is he using?
can we see Tom in Olympic Cross Country
ineos making this feel like f1 lol
Rly nice, now do it with the f12
tom pidcock shout out
did anyone else notice those oakleys for the second day?
Que talla de bici MTB Utilizas?
what kind of oakley is het wearing @3:35 ?
Pretty cool but stop showing your Pinarello road bike getting a wash when you spend time on a BMC mtb bike😁
Good to be able to see Tom in action in the wood. 🤘
El cuadro que es pinarello?
Ineos build MTB Team???
Funny how they only show the gravel road bike and not the mtn bike as pinnerello doesn't make a mountain bike 😂
Is it a pinarello bike
Great video, but legwarmers without armwarmers is a firm no for me ;)
I want know tompidcock mtb frame size???
Whats the Name of the Oakley?
Think those are sutros with the lower frame taken off
Sutro lite
Do you mean the shades at 3:35? Those are the new Oakley Encoders.
@@erklng yep! Thank you!
He looks like Phillipe Coutinho..
I really want to buy those PINARELLO MTB. But you cannot see them in stores or etc. Im really big fan of Team Ineos specially EGAN Bernal. But Im a MTB USER that's why I really want to buy a PINARELLO MTB. But its not available in the market. Thats why I just Rebrand my Frame. I really want to have a real PINARELLO. I hope you can give me a link. 🇵🇭
BMC Bike 🤔
Easy Tom. You can only ride one bike at a time.
MTB Pinarello Dogma?
I'm sure the suspension is fine, just ride it....
Bmc bike ?
He looks like a road rider even on a mtb.
Why no gloves, don’t understand
mtb its more fun
Can't believe he's allowed to do this during road season! Why is he testing MTB gear? Great video though 👍
His first mtb race is in May , doing 4 or 5 World Cup races leading up to Tokyo
What's the mtb bike?? Pinarello doesn't have mtb bikes looking like that 😉😂🤣
Looks to me like unbranded BMC Fourstroke.
long stem, narrow handlebar ... how a XC bike should be (and like N1NO by the way ...)
What with the masks! Woke👎🏼
why would a pro roadie ride off road without gloves . . .. . he comes off damages his hands and it's season over possibly worse. If he's not prepared to come off he's not riding close to the edge and what's the point. If you need a helmet - you need gloves.
Is this not just what EF Education have been doing for 3+ years and have had the piss taken out of them? Suddenly Ineos do it and it’s all ok? #lachlanforpresident
This has the feeling that they are trying to do an EF Education Alternative thing, but with none of the approachability and resonance to the weekend warrior cyclist, and with athletes with as much charisma and personality as a stay at home lockdown. I was hoping for big thing from this team, and all I have had is poor rehashing of other team ideas and some decent but truly uninspiring racing. Not for me thanks.
No offence to Lachie Morton but Pidcock is u23 XC World Champion and u23 E-Bike XC world champ. They aren't styling on weekend warriors in GB Duro and Three Peaks Cyclocross. The more they have been doing content the better it's getting and I hope it carries on because it's way better than 95% of the pro teams efforts.
@@tomavo yer maybe, but at least the decent weekend warrior, who has a day job, can enter the 3 peaks or the GBduro, and even if they don’t finish have a sense of what it’s like at a pro level, unlike these pro only races, with gear only the pros can get hold of (and yes EF education do the same with their gear for their riders). The end of the day, I’d rather go on a ride with Lachlan Morton than Pidcock who admittedly is Britain’s best cycling talent for generations but has the depth of personality of wet lettuce and jokes to match.
@@nmtbhtp1990 the lad is 21 give him a break.
Hardly a rehashing of ideas, likely mtb and cross were built into his program as it was before he joined
He’s in a new team testing new kit - good on em for showing us it. Not sure how this is anything like EF’s stuff. If anything INEOs are changing their robotic past and entertaining.
