The Slovenian superstar has swapped bikes and gone all in on bike hacks to give himself the best chance of moving up one place in the Paris-Roubaix rankings this year and taking his final Monument in what feels like a slightly inevitable victory (if not this year, then in the future).<\/p>\n<p>The day before the Hell of the North, I managed to catch his bike at the back of the team bus, and in a frantic 60 seconds snapped the key details that make it such a wonderful bike to behold for tech fans. There are classic Roubaix mods like bigger tyres, but then there are some fantastic &#8216;weight weenie&#8217; modifications like aftermarket thru-axles and a total lack of paint more or less anywhere on the bike or on key components.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Whether this is enough, and whether he&#8217;ll be taken out of the race by a small stone getting lodged between the front tyre and the fork, remains to be seen, but he&#8217;s given himself the best possible chance.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"article-continues-below block py-2 text-sm\">Article continues below <\/span><\/p>\n<aside data-component-name=\"Recirculation:ArticleRiver\" data-recirculation-type=\"inline\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"Trending Bar\" data-nosnippet class=\"clear-both pb-0 pt-2 mb-4\"><span class=\"\n            flex\n            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-[#ccc]\n            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-[#ccc]\n            font-article-heading pb-0 !text-base uppercase sm:text-sm font-bold\n        \"><br \/>\n            You may like<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"flex flex-col gap-0 m-0\">\n<li class=\"m-0 list-none border-b border-solid border-[#ededed] py-2\" data-recirculation-id=\"recirculation-card-1\" data-analytics-id=\"recirculation-inline-1\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"recirculation-inline-1\">\n    <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PYgRf6jWL6dK9yDrtbRork-250-80.jpg.webp 250w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PYgRf6jWL6dK9yDrtbRork-150-80.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"150px\" \/><span class=\"\n                            w-full font-article-heading line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-base font-medium\">Tadej Poga\u010dar has overhauled his cobbles setup in bid for Paris-Roubaix glory<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"m-0 list-none border-b border-solid border-[#ededed] py-2\" data-recirculation-id=\"recirculation-card-2\" data-analytics-id=\"recirculation-inline-2\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"recirculation-inline-2\">\n    <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/AhitWYzxYLQUpDw3GhKfME-250-80.jpg.webp 250w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/AhitWYzxYLQUpDw3GhKfME-150-80.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"150px\" \/><span class=\"\n                            w-full font-article-heading line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-base font-medium\">Conquering the cobbles \u2013 A brief history of Paris-Roubaix bike evolution<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"m-0 list-none border-b border-solid border-[#ccc] py-2\" data-recirculation-id=\"recirculation-card-3\" data-analytics-id=\"recirculation-inline-3\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"recirculation-inline-3\">\n    <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PfFJku8cuv2vkBRGzVoidc-250-80.jpg.webp 250w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PfFJku8cuv2vkBRGzVoidc-150-80.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"150px\" \/><span class=\"\n                            w-full font-article-heading line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-base font-medium\">Unorthodox and indecisive: Everything we know from Paris-Roubaix recon so far<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/aside>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check id=\"elk-2a6f2803-64ed-443e-80c8-aad770d5721a\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\">\n<source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw -

The Slovenian superstar has swapped bikes and gone all in on bike hacks to give himself the best chance of moving up one place in the Paris-Roubaix rankings this year and taking his final Monument in what feels like a slightly inevitable victory (if not this year, then in the future).<\/p>\n<p>The day before the Hell of the North, I managed to catch his bike at the back of the team bus, and in a frantic 60 seconds snapped the key details that make it such a wonderful bike to behold for tech fans. There are classic Roubaix mods like bigger tyres, but then there are some fantastic &#8216;weight weenie&#8217; modifications like aftermarket thru-axles and a total lack of paint more or less anywhere on the bike or on key components.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Whether this is enough, and whether he&#8217;ll be taken out of the race by a small stone getting lodged between the front tyre and the fork, remains to be seen, but he&#8217;s given himself the best possible chance.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"article-continues-below block py-2 text-sm\">Article continues below <\/span><\/p>\n<aside data-component-name=\"Recirculation:ArticleRiver\" data-recirculation-type=\"inline\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"Trending Bar\" data-nosnippet class=\"clear-both pb-0 pt-2 mb-4\"><span class=\"\n            flex\n            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-[#ccc]\n            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-[#ccc]\n            font-article-heading pb-0 !text-base uppercase sm:text-sm font-bold\n        \"><br \/>\n            You may like<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"flex flex-col gap-0 m-0\">\n<li class=\"m-0 list-none border-b border-solid border-[#ededed] py-2\" data-recirculation-id=\"recirculation-card-1\" data-analytics-id=\"recirculation-inline-1\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"recirculation-inline-1\">\n    <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PYgRf6jWL6dK9yDrtbRork-250-80.jpg.webp 250w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PYgRf6jWL6dK9yDrtbRork-150-80.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"150px\" \/><span class=\"\n                            w-full font-article-heading line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-base font-medium\">Tadej Poga\u010dar has overhauled his cobbles setup in bid for Paris-Roubaix glory<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"m-0 list-none border-b border-solid border-[#ededed] py-2\" data-recirculation-id=\"recirculation-card-2\" data-analytics-id=\"recirculation-inline-2\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"recirculation-inline-2\">\n    <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/AhitWYzxYLQUpDw3GhKfME-250-80.jpg.webp 250w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/AhitWYzxYLQUpDw3GhKfME-150-80.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"150px\" \/><span class=\"\n                            w-full font-article-heading line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-base font-medium\">Conquering the cobbles \u2013 A brief history of Paris-Roubaix bike evolution<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"m-0 list-none border-b border-solid border-[#ccc] py-2\" data-recirculation-id=\"recirculation-card-3\" data-analytics-id=\"recirculation-inline-3\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"recirculation-inline-3\">\n    <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PfFJku8cuv2vkBRGzVoidc-250-80.jpg.webp 250w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PfFJku8cuv2vkBRGzVoidc-150-80.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"150px\" \/><span class=\"\n                            w-full font-article-heading line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-base font-medium\">Unorthodox and indecisive: Everything we know from Paris-Roubaix recon so far<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/aside>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check id=\"elk-2a6f2803-64ed-443e-80c8-aad770d5721a\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\">\n<source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw -

He\u2019s made his own bike frames, covered tech news from the biggest races on the planet, and published countless premium galleries thanks to his excellent photographic eye. Also, given he doesn\u2019t ever ride indoors he\u2019s become a real expert on foul-weather riding gear.

The Slovenian superstar has swapped bikes and gone all in on bike hacks to give himself the best chance of moving up one place in the Paris-Roubaix rankings this year and taking his final Monument in what feels like a slightly inevitable victory (if not this year, then in the future).<\/p>\n<p>The day before the Hell of the North, I managed to catch his bike at the back of the team bus, and in a frantic 60 seconds snapped the key details that make it such a wonderful bike to behold for tech fans. There are classic Roubaix mods like bigger tyres, but then there are some fantastic &#8216;weight weenie&#8217; modifications like aftermarket thru-axles and a total lack of paint more or less anywhere on the bike or on key components.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Whether this is enough, and whether he&#8217;ll be taken out of the race by a small stone getting lodged between the front tyre and the fork, remains to be seen, but he&#8217;s given himself the best possible chance.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"article-continues-below block py-2 text-sm\">Article continues below <\/span><\/p>\n<aside data-component-name=\"Recirculation:ArticleRiver\" data-recirculation-type=\"inline\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"Trending Bar\" data-nosnippet class=\"clear-both pb-0 pt-2 mb-4\"><span class=\"\n            flex\n            after:content-[''] after:flex-1 after:ml-4 after:my-[0.7rem] after:border-t after:border-solid after:border-t-[#ccc]\n            before:content-[''] before:flex-1 before:mr-4 before:my-[0.7rem] before:border-t before:border-solid before:border-t-[#ccc]\n            font-article-heading pb-0 !text-base uppercase sm:text-sm font-bold\n        \"><br \/>\n            You may like<br \/>\n        <\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"flex flex-col gap-0 m-0\">\n<li class=\"m-0 list-none border-b border-solid border-[#ededed] py-2\" data-recirculation-id=\"recirculation-card-1\" data-analytics-id=\"recirculation-inline-1\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"recirculation-inline-1\">\n    <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PYgRf6jWL6dK9yDrtbRork-250-80.jpg.webp 250w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PYgRf6jWL6dK9yDrtbRork-150-80.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"150px\" \/><span class=\"\n                            w-full font-article-heading line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-base font-medium\">Tadej Poga\u010dar has overhauled his cobbles setup in bid for Paris-Roubaix glory<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"m-0 list-none border-b border-solid border-[#ededed] py-2\" data-recirculation-id=\"recirculation-card-2\" data-analytics-id=\"recirculation-inline-2\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"recirculation-inline-2\">\n    <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/AhitWYzxYLQUpDw3GhKfME-250-80.jpg.webp 250w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/AhitWYzxYLQUpDw3GhKfME-150-80.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"150px\" \/><span class=\"\n                            w-full font-article-heading line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-base font-medium\">Conquering the cobbles \u2013 A brief history of Paris-Roubaix bike evolution<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"m-0 list-none border-b border-solid border-[#ccc] py-2\" data-recirculation-id=\"recirculation-card-3\" data-analytics-id=\"recirculation-inline-3\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"recirculation-inline-3\">\n    <source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PfFJku8cuv2vkBRGzVoidc-250-80.jpg.webp 250w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/PfFJku8cuv2vkBRGzVoidc-150-80.jpg.webp 150w\" sizes=\"150px\" \/><span class=\"\n                            w-full font-article-heading line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-base font-medium\">Unorthodox and indecisive: Everything we know from Paris-Roubaix recon so far<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/aside>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure inline-layout\" data-bordeaux-image-check id=\"elk-2a6f2803-64ed-443e-80c8-aad770d5721a\">\n<div class=\"image-full-width-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-widthsetter\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\">\n<source type=\"image\/webp\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-1200-80.jpg.webp 1200w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-1024-80.jpg.webp 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-970-80.jpg.webp 970w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-650-80.jpg.webp 650w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-480-80.jpg.webp 480w, https:\/\/cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net\/mkgUyAqQj8whVLuQeWoRCR-320-80.jpg.webp 320w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 970px, calc(100vw -
