British rider Tom Pidcock may have joined the WorldTour in 2021 when he signed for Ineos Grenadiers but has achieved more than a lot of riders do in a full career already. Even more impressively, he has done it across multiple cycling disciplines, with his talents seeming limitless at times.
After taking multiple junior and under-23 championships and world titles including victory at the e-mtb world championships prior to his signing, Pidcock joined the WorldTour ranks used to winning, and didn’t waste much time before claiming his maiden major road win at De Brabantse Pijl where he outsprinted Wout Van Aert in 2021.
The young Briton excels across the road, cyclocross and XC MTB disciplines in a way few riders before him have managed to do. He hammered the point home later on in 2021 with victory in the Olympic cross country race at the Tokyo Olympics. In January 2022 he added a victory in the cyclocross world championships in Arkansas, USA to his already incredible palmares.
A solo victory atop Alpe D’huez in the 2022 Tour de France along with some descending skills worthy of the very best pro cycling has ever seen has already cemented Pidcock’s legacy, and the coming years will unveil just what heights he can scale in the sport.
With his multidisciplinarianism, Pidcock is familiar with all manner of bikes, on-road and off. Below, we will take a deep dive into Pidcock’s bikes, his setup and personal equipment choices.

His Olympic MTB title was won on an unbranded BMC Fourstroke due to sponsor Pinarello not currently making an MTB model, but this is something that may change in the future as any brand will want their star rider riding – and winning – on one of their bikes.
The Dogma F is the team weapon of choice for the road. Shimano supplies Dura Ace 9200 groupsets and wheels while Pinarello’s component subsidiary Most provides the integrated handlebar-stem, seatpost and bar tape. Fizik provides its Antares saddle and Elite the bottle cages. A K-Edge chain catcher keeps things running smoothly.
