Jonas Vingegaard successfully defended his 2022 Tour de France title again this July. After three weeks of battle and one of the most exciting Tour de Frances in years he once again found himself standing victorious atop the winner’s podium on the Champs-Élysée as the sun began to set on the 2023 tour.
Vingegaard hasn’t put a foot wrong this year, the quiet and unassuming Dane’s victories perhaps come and go with a little less fanfare than some of his rival’s more explosive wins, but 2023 has witnessed a scintillating run of form and victories for the 26-year-old.
Stage wins and an overall victory at Gran Camiño in February opened Vingegaards account for the year. He then followed this up with a third place to Tadej Pogacar and David Gaudu at Paris Nice, before winning ways were quickly resumed with another overall stage race title at Itzulia Basque Country as well as a solo victory on the final day.
Another overall World Tour victory came before the Tour when Vingegaard claimed the overall at the Critérium du Dauphiné by over two minutes from Adam Yates. All of the new tech being rolled out for the race also prompted us to create a mega-tech gallery.
We haven’t covered as many of Vingegaards machines as some other riders so far, but we have little doubt that there will be plenty of other custom and winners bikes added to this list in the coming years.
What is Jonas Vingegaards bike for 2023?
Vingegaard and the other riders on Team Jumbo Visma ride Cervelo bikes and have a few models to choose from on the road. Cervelo offers the Cervelo S5, R5, P5, and Caledonia models for riders to use. The P5 is the brand’s time trial bike, and the Caledonia is a model that is seen mainly at the early season classics.
Vingegaard has ridden the Tour and other stage races this year riding the R5 and S5 models. The R5 is the brand’s lighter-weight climbing bike, which the Dane rode a lot in the high mountains. The S5 is a more aero-focused bike which focuses on speed for flatter terrain, it also features an eye-catching integrated bar and stem.
Vingegaard arrived at the tour with a custom-painted S5 which featured some personalised graphics and star constellations. He then was provided with a custom yellow S5 for the final stage of the Tour when victory was assured.
