Actually, it's the distinct sound of his disc wheel. The carbon fiber acts like a big speaker and makes that roaring sound. It's a sound triathletes/time trialists love to hear, just not coming up behind them! :)

@Joeylatz 85-95 is normal, are a Lance Armstrong fan per chance? Actually, no cadence is normal, everyone is different (i ride at 85-90, looks cooler, others ride at 100+). However in a race, mainly because I'm a junior and have restricted gears, I can be sat down going downhill at 40mph with a cadence closer to 200+. It's about what's comfy and works for you. Cav sprints at 120ish max, Boonen far less.

Do you ride a bike? 100 RPM is normal. 130 RPM is, as I said, nothing.
-
lol fuck off.......yes it is if your not sprinting.

130 RPM is nothing.......

Korrekt video! World of backstage!

I wonder why he warms up with his disk wheel? I guess so he can warm up right until his start time and if for some reason he flats them pros got enough wheels to satisfy anybody.
-
holy shit hes at about 130 RPM at the peak there...
-
Cool!

you cant complain, it's just what it says it is. If you're watching it, it's because you want to know (probably) how Leipheimer warms up.
Is that jet sound coming from the bike?

Yes, from about the 1 minute mark when he starts cranking the gears up :)
