Kipchoge is an aerobic monster. How would he fare if he competed in the Tour de France? Given his light bodyweight, could he keep up with the best climbers like Jonas Vingegaard and Remco Evenepoel on the mountain stages?
He would probably destroy the entire TdF field in an uphill mountain time trial. I would give him a minute or two over the rest on that sort of stage. However, he would lose serious time on the other stages as he does not have anything like the bike handling skills required to follow wheels, ride in a big group and draft etc.
