An in-depth look at two Tour-winning bikes separated by 10 years <\/p>

The men\u2019s Tour de France has come to an end once more, with the riders rolling onto the Champs-\u00c9lys\u00e9es under the warm Parisian sun.<\/p>\n

But as the dust settled on Jonas Vingegaard\u2019s victory, we began thinking about the centenary edition, which, just a decade ago, was won by Chris Froome.<\/p>\n

Many things might look the same, but the Tour-winning bike has changed significantly from 2013 to 2023.<\/p>\n

From advanced aero shapes and integrated cockpits, to tubeless tyres and 1x, let\u2019s take a closer look at how the bike of the Tour de France champion has evolved from Froome\u2019s Pinarello Dogma 65.1 Think2 to Vingegaard\u2019s Cerv\u00e9lo S5 and R5.<\/p>\n\n<h2>Aerodynamics<\/h2>\n<div class=\""image-handler__container\" image-handler__container--aspect=\"\" style=\""padding-bottom:\"
