NO

It has to be some kind of built in system that manages the tire pressure. It could be any system used in the past, like that used in 2023, or some other system. It has to be either automatic or controlled by the rider, something that lets them change the tire pressure while still riding. Carrying a CO2 does not count.

Has to be at least two riders on the team using it. One single rider is just an individual and won't count.

@Eliza Still wouldn't be suprised if another team shows up with it. Let's see ๐Ÿ‘€

I read that TJV is not using the tire inflation system.

Does it have to be the whole team? Or is one rider enough?

predicted YES

@Checktaschu At least two riders. One single rider won't count. If it's just one, that's an individual. Two are a team.

I hope I'm wrong. This could really change the race to a more tactical one and less driven by luck. But so far, I don't believe the system development is far enough zo be valuable.

Based on my distracted listening to the last BikeRadar nerd alert podcast, I would say yes, but only one or few teams

predicted YES

@Ppau I'm most curious if Visma thinks is was worth doing again

predicted YES
