Stage 21

23 July 1989 — Versailles to Paris Champs-Élysées, 24.5 km (15.2 mi) (ITT)[31]

LeMond starting the final time trial
Main article: Champs-Élysées stage in the Tour de France

Departing from Versailles, the route passed through Chaville, Sèvres and Issy-les-Moulineaux, before the intermediate timecheck and then entering Paris and crossing to the Rive Droite. The route entered the Champs-Élysées via the Cours-la-Reine and the Place de la Concorde, heading up the Champs-Élysées and returning down the other side, just before the Arc de Triomphe.[31]

The time trial was the first and, so far, only to have ever finished on the Champs-Élysées at the end of a Tour de France.

LeMond's time trial bike was set up with a 54-tooth chainring on the front and a 12-tooth gear as the fastest on the rear cogset,[32] as well as the triathlon bars he had used in the Stage 5 and Stage 15 time trials, and a rear Mavic disc wheel.[33] Meanwhile, Fignon rode with the same rear gear, but a 55-tooth front ring,[32] no triathlon bars, and with front and rear disc wheels. LeMond used an aerodynamic helmet, whilst Fignon rode without a helmet and wore a long ponytail.[33] Fignon also had a saddle sore and had little sleep the night before.[34]

With the weather hot, dry and still, LeMond departed from the starthouse in Versailles at 4:12 p.m. CEST, and Fignon two minutes later.[32] LeMond requested that his support crew did not provide him with his intermediate times, or details of Fignon's progress, so that he could give total concentration to his own ride.[35] By the 11.5 km (7.1 mi) timecheck, LeMond was 21 seconds up on Fignon, for the stage.[32] LeMond averaged 33.8 mph (54.4 km/h) along the course, which was a Tour de France time trial record at the time.[36]
