Can't find answers anywhere to
Cyclingnoob
Sorry, total noob to all things cycling alert. Smile

1 - What bonuses (if any) does each specialisation give? I guess some would be obvious e.g: Sprinter. but what about Stage Races or Fighter?

2 - What does a high PRL stat affect?

3 - What is GC? (Seen it mentioned in tip threads here).

4 - Does Rider Status affect performance? If so, what does Protected Rider or Luxury Team Mate Mean?

5 - Does the Gel extend attacks / sprints? or does it replenish energy? (read conflicting posts on that here).

6 - What r the effects when the yellow bar is completely gone?

Thanks in advance & sorry if ?s r silly.

Specialisation is based on the stats, it's not really a bonus. A stage racer mainly has a good MO and TT, a fighter mainly a good FL and FTR
PRL affects prologues, TTs shorter than 8km
GC is general classification
They have no effect but on morale. A low morale doesn't matter at all in PCM13 though Pfft
Gel makes the red bar decrease slower, so you can indeed extend sprint and attacks (or at least I think so)
If you empty yellow you won't be able to follow accelerations properly and accelerate yourself. Also your top speed will be lower.

I can help you.

1) Stage races will give you bonuses towards climbing, time trails and endurance. Fighter will focus mainly on the flat stat.

2) Affects the rider's stamina (yellow bar) on short stage races under 100km.

3) General Classification - leader's jersey

4) Yes, it affects their morale under training and therefore their race performance. A rider with status as Captain gets pissed if you use him as Teammate all the time. But it has no great effect in PCM13.

5) Extends attacks/sprints, yes. Takes effect after 3km or so.

6) Great reduction in speed. Can't keep up with anyone.
