My bike: Toms Skujiņš and his 2021 Team Trek Emonda
In the first episode of My Bike, Giro d’Italia stage victor Chad Haga of Team DSM was our first culprit, sorry, guest, and for this the second instalment, we have an equally successful professional. Maybe even a professional WorldTour rider that we like to claim as our own here at CT (for specific reasons). I sure he doesn’t mind that.
Toms Skujiņš of Team Trek-Segefredo is a man, nay a gentleman, with a King of the Mountains jersey (probably), proudly hanging on his wall at home after spending an exhilarating few days in the polka dots back at the 2018 Tour de France. A man who is well known for his potato escapades. Yes, that gentleman is the one the only, Toms Skwinch, Sjinch, Skujiņš. That’s the one. Yeah, he’s also got a tricky last name.
In this episode, we dive in and take a good look at Toms’s new race bike for this season. Or more precisely, his training bike, but let us be honest here, there is practically no difference. There are a few tweaks, of course, but you’ll have to watch the video as I’m sure he’ll let you know what they are. Don’t expect any Froome style grumbling from Toms about his new bike or set up, but do expect a sly nod to things that we the fans should keep an eye out for once the team hit the cobbled classics.
For 2021 it’s no surprise Toms is aboard the latest Trek Emonda. As we found out last season, when the bike was launched, a fair chunk of the team switched from their full out aero bikes, the Madone, to the now aero/lightweight well-rounded race bike, the Emonda. It seems to hit the sweet spot from what we gather.
So without me spoiling anymore, I’ll hand you over to Toms, and he can let you know about his new bike.
Toms picked out the cages as a little somthing that he really is picky about. 
Tea team also ahve the Trek Modone at their desposal. Though from the sound of things the new Emonda takes the limelight in the team trucks. 
Race wheels are Bontrager Aeolus XXX4 shod with Pirelli rubber. The team may or may not be testing 28mm tubeless.
