Tom wins, he doesn't have to ride a grand tour, is the big fish on the small pond team. He can pick his races and gets paid a hefty fee, as well goes under the UK press radar abit not being the English super kid that needs to perform at Inoes.

Although he will not have much support in the last 20K by teammates in any meaningful one day races. Suppose he is use to that with MTB and cross not really subject to the same team work dynamics.

Also have to assume this allows Tom more freedom to race CX and MTB which are his first loves (and maybe dip a toe into gravel), require no support riders and pick up some UCI points (which now have some cross genre applications). That has to help the team’s overall profile as well.
