I think he would have a very big salary at a big team as well ;-)
The Alpecin-Fenix team is built around MVDP, so I guess that suits him fine

It doesn’t give him the guaranteed grand tour entries though. Though his name alone might win wild card entries to the tour.

Oh no doubt! Didnt mean to insinuate that he hadn't been offered big money elsewhwere..... just that with the help of Canyon A-F were able to offer him enough to make him stay..... which i can only presume would have had to be more than he'd been offered by any of the bigger teams.
I guess maybe he also prefered the big fish/small pond as oposed to the smaller fish/big pond option.
Purely making my own assumptions here though!

Does AF give him more flexibility to race xc and cx rather than focus purely on road given his Tokyo ambitions?

Wow - didn’t know it was that long.
From what I’ve been told, Canyon pay the vast majority of his A-F salary. Can’t help but think what kind of a rider he would be now if he accepted a smaller salary at a bigger team last year (or however long ago it was he renewed)
