If Sagan is clean...

....then he's the new Merckx, no doubt about that at all.

Why the **** does a sprinter make him an EM ?

EM decimated as a TT more than as a sprinter.

Nobody was "clean" in the strict sense, however we can take clean to mean free
of EPO and it's derivatives since all other doping methods are insignificant in
that EPO is the only one that converts an above average rider into a super rider.

Do you actually follow cycling results?

This from a guy who's still only 22.

He's having a good run - my point is that EM won in multiple ways
while Sagan wins sprints.

A good sprinter doesn't make one a 'cannibal'

Let's see if Sagan can impress in the mountains.

The point is that he can *sprint* uphill, a feat normally confined to EPO users.

"According to Sagan's SRM file, in the final 1.5km when Cancellara initiated the
move, Sagan ramped up his cadence to over 120rpm to stay with him and averaged
493 watts of power in the last 2 minutes 20 seconds of the race. His power
output surged to 1,236 watts in the finale, averaging 970 watts in the last 200
metres.[28] On Stage 3, he came atop the final Category 4 climb in
Boulogne-sur-Mer sprinting away and leaving the field behind"

OK, so now he's a doper.
