Yes, it's my bike this year and I remember you alright in 2015, actually after the finish I've seen in you in the food shop and waved the hand but you didn't notice. I don't have a computer so had no idea that it was so fast then, looks like I've become much slower in last few years, but anyway with 48x17 against mine 53x16/15 after all you were hours ahead at the finish both times, so that proves another time that gears matter less then attitude. Am I right that you were on TCR with the same 48x17 SS?I'm still wondering how Bjorn managed to do this with the ratio that was announced when he presented his bike for PBP.

Damn, shame I didn't notice.
I've had gears in TCR every time, though I did it with the otherwise same bike.
Björn said he'd ride 49/19 but I think he said he had some other cogs with him too, when I spoke with him. Downhills would not be too relaxed with that but it is about the same many use around here too for general road riding.

You're the guy who was riding this?
I think we rode together for a while in the 2015 PBP near Brest. I was on a singlespeed back then and we were riding together with a third guy on a geared bike. Every time he tried to take a pull the speed dropped a little, to under 37km/h or something and then you always passed him to keep the pace close to 40. Made me laugh. My 48/17 felt too spinny.
