The bikes of Milton Nations Cup: A look at track tech

There was a wide range of very quick machines

There were plenty of fast cyclists in Milton for the Nations Cup, but there were also a lot of fast bikes. Here’s a selection of some of the rides from the Mattamy National Cycling Centre.

Italy’s Pinarello Maat

 

The blue and black bikes of the Italian team are a thing of beauty. Note the integrated “hoods” on bars.

Cycling Canada’s Argon 18

Canada’s Kelsey Mitchell rode the black and red, Canadian-built bike to victory

 

Talc on the bars for grip

Many riders opted for talc instead of tape

 

The British  Hope / Lotus bike

The Brits collaborated with Lotus for the 2020 Olympic Games

Cervélos as far as the eye can see

The company founded in Canada still has a very big presence on the boards

But the Pinarellos are reserved for the Italians
