Wout van Aert’s cyclocross season is underway and his second cyclocross race proved to be a winning one at the World Cup round in Dublin last weekend! cycling
Van Aert rode to his first win of the cyclocross season at Dublin last weekend but the event was not without alarm. He found himself behind early on due to a mechanical and a mechanic's towel getting jammed in his rear derailleur while passing the pits. He initially lost contact with his rivals but went on to win the race ahead of Laurens Sweeck with Tom Pidcock finishing third.
The carbon frameset is compatible with disc brakes and electronic drivetrains only to avoid cable entries and exits, which Cervélo says is to minimise water ingress.12-speed groupset comprising of shifters, brakes and rear mech and unlike we see on many cyclocross bikes Van Aert also uses an R9200 front mech and double chainring setup rather than a single ring up front.
Tyres are obviously very important in cyclocross and Van Aert, like many of his competitors has opted for32 mm tyres. For UCI-sanctioned events, the maximum width allowed is 33 mm. The tread on these tyres is for muddy courses with pronounced nobbles, this was obviously a good shout because by the time the Senior men were underway the ground had thawed and parts became unrideable.
