Defending Tour de France champion Jonas Vingegaard’s Cervelo R5

.

Jonas Vingegaard will be hoping to add a third consecutive Tour de France victory to his palmares this July. After suffering a horror crash earlier in the year at Itzulia Basque Country that saw him suffer a punctured lung, fractured ribs and a broken collar bone defending his title is going to be no mean feat. 

Vingegaard has the choice of three bikes for road stages from team bike sponsor Cervélo with the S5 aero bike, the R5 lightweight bike and the Soloist which is something of an allrounder. At the Tour de France, we can expect to see Vingegaard switching between the R5 and S5 depending on the profile of the stage.
