Next year or 2020 according to his team, his goals this year have been week long stage races (Tirreno, Itzulia and Romandie) and then stage hunting at the Tour.
Save for Tirreno where a bad TTT, and then a loss of focus leading to a crash on the mountain stage, he's hit all of his goals so far. Looks like one of these "target something and wins it" type of riders. He did similar with his Tour stage that he won last year

Got a Dura Ace 9000 hydro groupset I'm putting up for sale (immaculate condition, re-greased derailleur pulleys, and brand new chainrings) only reason I'm posting here is the brakes are post mount front and flatmount rear like on a CAAD12. Happy to split out if needed.
After £625 including post and fees.

So, splitting shouldn't be too much of an issue.
At the moment I've got:
Frame - £500 - need confirmation @damitamit if not then I've got a backup
Group - £425 - sound fair @MRI?
Wheels - £275 - ???
Stem + Handlebars - £100 - ????
Seatpost - £50 - ???Same "I get that price, so fees and delivery apply" rule
-
@damitamit it's a 2014 frameset.
I've got no problem breaking it down, I've set up a PM between all three of us to figure it out :)

"And Lopez comes home in second!"
No Carlton, that would be Luis Leon Sanchez... the 6'1" rider, as opposed to the 5'6" rider
@andyp that's the only logical reason why I can think he gets looked at so much, wear him down so they've got a chance in the sprint; but at this point, he's just not bothering, so they're shooting themselves in the foot.

Great ride from Valgren, who's starting to make a name for himself by being strong enough to get in these moves, and then tactically astute enough to put in the killer blow...
Though the assertions that he was the strongest in that group are just plain wrong, he just about held on through the climbs and then sat on whilst others were attacking/pulling. Valverde and Alaphilippe were strongest going uphill and Sagan on the flat, hence no-one wanting to pull for him.
For all of Kirby's blabbering and bullshit, I think he made a good point, that he somewhat let Valgren and Kreuziger go - both are ex-teammates at Tinkoff. When a mountain goat like Kreuziger goes off the front to chase, it really wouldn't have taken much for Sagan to get on his wheel to close the gap.

Every single teammate Terpstra has seems to like him, I've not seen a bad quote from any of his team.
Seems to be a bit of Michael Schumacher - fiercely competitive, generally disliked, thinks quite a lot of himself (though does back it up [not warrant it mind]), but if you're "in" with him, he'll do whatever you need him to do.

If you're after a set of 8070 shifters + brakes, I've got some new in box as I was too lazy to piece out a groupset that I wanted, drop me a pm if you want :)
