As discussed in a special edition podcast with EF Pro Cycling athlete Lachlan Morton last month, he has decided not to defend his Unbound 200 title. Instead, Morton will race the 350-mile Unbound XL, which begins at 3:00 pm US Central Time on Friday, May 30.
Morton is known for his extensive experimentation with bike and gear setups, yet in recent years, he seems to have settled on some common themes. Particularly with his endurance rigs.

For the Unbound XL, which features a rolling terrain profile rather than prevalent punchy climbs, he's using a Cannondale Topstone with a rigid carbon fork, GRX 2X drivetrain, and a spread of aero and endurance accoutrements.
