Cannondale launched its revamped SuperSix Evo just a couple weeks before the start of the 2019 Tour de France. It’s a ground-up redesign of its lightweight climbing bike. Photo: Dan Cavallari | VeloNews.com

The pros get what the pros want. The SuperSix Evo comes stock with an integrated aero cockpit, but van Garderen ran a more traditional stem here. That of course required some different cable routing and a cap to cover where the cables would normally route under the stem. Photo: Dan Cavallari | VeloNews.com

Note the cap in front of the headset where the stem would usually integrate. Photo: Dan Cavallari | VeloNews.com

Prologo saddles feature grippy materials shaped like tiny volcanoes to help secure the rider in place. This encourages a stable riding position for better pedaling power transfer. Photo: Dan Cavallari | VeloNews.com

While it appears to be a big moment for tubeless tires at the Tour, van Garderen stuck with tubulars for stage 1. Photo: Dan Cavallari | VeloNews.com
