How Paris-Roubaix winning bikes have changed in a decade

While Mathieu van der Poel recently secured his first Paris-Roubaix victory, the great Fabian Cancellara won the last of his three cobbles just over a decade ago.   Though the fundamentals remain the same, road bike tech has come a long way in the meantime.   Spartacus won aboard a Trek Domane 6-Series – an endurance road bike designed specifically to tame cobbles.   The Flying Dutchman, on the other hand, rode a Canyon Aeroad CFR – the same aero road bike he recently piloted to victory in Milan-San Remo, with only a few minor modifications.   With that in mind, devoted road bike nerds, Jack Luke, Simon von Bromley and Ashley Quinlan, sat down to compare the two bikes and discuss the major leaps in Roubaix-winning tech of the past 10 years.
