Tag along for another decompression conversation, where we chat about the Mountain of Hell mass-start race, Cannondale's Bad Habit that Jason's been reviewing, how heavy is too heavy for a trail bike, the subjectiveness of bike setup and what components are ‘good,' bar width, bar ends, and auto-shifting e-bike gearbox motors. Enjoy!

This week, Dave, Ronan, and new guy Jack chat about Eddy Merckx's new bike and why it's surprised Ronan. The bike provides good fodder for diving into more serviceable cockpits and for understanding why only fashion may limit the uptake of progressive road geometry. There's good news for those who prefer cable-actuated shifting, as Shimano has updated its mountain bike offerings. Dave has other things on his mind, too, including Australia's Spoken bike show and how downhill is teasing future puzzling for disc brakes.Of course, there's plenty more than that, and members of Escape Collective also get Ask a Wrench at the end of the episode (members-only feed).Time stamps: 00:01:30 - The new Eddy Merckx and an exploration into progressive road geometry  00:22:45 - Shimano's mechanical shifting update 00:29:00 - Shimano updates a real classic  00:31:45 - Don't miss Overnight Success  00:33:50 - Downhill tech is on Dave's mind and the pursuit of heat-regulated brakes  00:39:15 - Dave makes a case for why Australia's builder scene is world-class  00:46:00 - Cannondale's nostalgic Team Dream CAAD14s  00:47:15 - Bianchi's new Specialissima  00:51:45 - Ask a Wrench with Colin Williams (Members Only)  00:54:00 - A Shimano mechanical dropbar shifter that's coming undone  01:03:00 - Inconsistent Torx tooling  01:13:45 - Noisy eccentric bottom bracket challenges  01:21:20 - Disc brake pads for high elevation bike packing

CrossPolitic One-on-One — Show Notes: Chris Stadler On this episode of CrossPolitic One-on-One, the Waterboy welcomes Chris Stadler, creative strategist, former University of Oregon instructor, and founder of chrisstadler.com, into the studio to talk about why most marketing fails to win hearts and minds — and how a disciplined, logical creative strategy process gives businesses, churches, and Christian institutions the tools to differentiate, build real meaning, and take the dominion mandate seriously in the marketplace.

2025 was a season that looked incredible on paper for Ella Conolly… but underneath, it was anything but straightforward. Ella was dealing with fatigue through much of the year, including at World Champs, where despite that, she still managed to finish second in the world. We sat down to talk through her 2025 season in full, including racing on an unreleased Cannondale bike, and adapting mid-season to new RockShox suspension ahead of its official launch. We also get into the changing face of World Enduro, the rise of new talent, and where the sport feels like it's heading. This isn't just a conversation about results, it's about what sits behind them: the compromises, the performance, and what it takes to stay competitive when things aren't perfect. So sit back, hit play and check out this episode with Ella Conolly.

This week on the GCN Show, we're celebrating a massive new World Motorpaced Hour Record and the release of Cannondale's latest aluminium offering, the CAAD14. We also dive into the "weird" habits that unite all cyclists - from window reflection checks to the dreaded Lycra school run - and discuss the latest pro racing action from Paris-Nice and Tirreno-Adriatico. Plus, Dan and Si have a huge announcement regarding a trip to Australia for a very special gravel race!Chapters:00:00 - Intro 00:36 - Jonas Cycling Attire & Si's Haircut  03:38 - Cyclist Habits09:28 - New Motorpaced Hour Record10:41 - Fighting Crime on Two Wheels11:06 - The New Cannondale CAAD1413:13 - Pro Racing: Paris-Nice & Tirreno17:13 - HJC Helmet & Jersey Limited Edition18:08   Win A Vision Metron 60 SL Wheelset!18:36 - Hack or Bodge?24:14 - Caption Competition27:00 - Your Comments & E-Bike Chat32:00 - The Nugget: GCN Goes To Australia!

There has been an alarming amount of physical assault and middle fingers flying in the pro peloton lately. Last weekend, UCI race officials disqualified NSN Devo rider Kiaan Watts after he reached out and struck a competitor in the head mid-race. Just days later, British time trial champion Ethan Hayter earned himself a $645 fine and a docking of 25 UCI points for flashing his middle finger to a TV moto at 54 kilometers an hour during the Tirreno-Adriatico. Which begs the question: when was the last time you completely lost your cool mid-ride? In this week's episode, Mike, Lisa, and I share our own stories of frustration, adrenaline, and bad behavior. These are not stories any of us—well, maybe Mike—are particularly proud of, but it happens. Lisa details her dark fantasy involving spark plugs, and I pretend like I might actually have the courage to remove a mirror or two. Mike confesses to standing in an intersection in full Lycra and kinda, maybe, definitely threatening a driver. We want to hear about your frustrated moments with cars, so jump into the comments and let us know. This wasn't only a complaining episode, though. This past week was a massive week for road tech, and we had two incredibly different bikes to dissect. First up is the fourth-generation Giant Propel. Giant is making a massive aero claim of 18 watts saved. Is that even possible? I break down the fine print after cross-referencing three different press releases, and I talk about why I think it's actually quite likely—but also why you might not even need a new bike to take advantage of those 18 watts. The big news this week, though, is not about aero gains. I'm super excited to talk about the new Cannondale CAAD14 and why Cannondale is leading this launch with an apology. The latest model in this lineup is heavier than the last one, but that's not what the apology is about. There's also a showstopper brushed aluminum version, and we talk about why you can't buy it. Finally, we tackle a question from Velo editor Jim Cotton: When you are completely bonked, shivering, and staring blankly into a gas station aisle, what is your desperation snack of choice? Lisa has a jersey pocket recipe of marinated chicken nuggets that's either genius or offensive, while I rain on the parade with a more clinical eye for my choices. No surprise if you listen regularly, Mike chooses Monster. I also share a story about a near-mythical vending machine I encountered outside Vienna, Austria, around 1 a.m. near the end of a 200-ish mile ride. There's also some time spent on listener questions and comments where Lisa shares an absolutely outrageous opinion about downtube storage before Mike says he wants a leather-bound novel with his bike… or maybe just a paper manual. I also spend some time talking about the merits of the user experience as it relates to package design and high-end sunglasses, and we all confess to hoarding tires. As you wrap it up, we definitely want to know your take on Lisa's recipe, what you would have chosen from the vending machine, and how you feel about downtube storage. Chapters: 00:00 - Intro and road rage 11:50 - Gas station snacks of choice 23:43 - Listener Questions 41:17 - 4th generation Giant Propel and the 18-watt aero claim 50:04 - Cannondale CAAD14

Esta semana ha estado cargada de novedades interesantes, sobre todo en carretera; comenzando por la nueva Giant Propel Advanced, que presenta su 4ª generación y que se ha convertido en una auténtica ‘all rounder', capaz de ofrecer la mejor aerodinámica pero que, gracias a una interesante rebaja de peso y una mayor absorción en el triángulo trasero, plantar cara en las subidas a su hermana escaladora, la Giant TCR. Por su parte Cannondale ha saldado una deuda histórica que tenía con el aluminio con la nueva CAAD14, una bici diferente para gente que busca algo diferente, incluso hasta cierto punto exclusivo, en metal. Una bici que para entenderla hay dejar conceptos actuales y prejuicios técnicos a un lado sobre el aluminio; un material diferente, único, especial... Pero las novedades en las ruedas finas no se detienen ahí. Shimano ha renovado el Tiagra cerrando el salto entre el CUES de 10 velocidades y el 105 de 12 en los grupos mecánicos para manillares curvos. El nuevo Tiagra luce impresionante y escala mucho mejor la gama de carretera de la marca japonesa. Las novedades no se detienen ahí. Orbea ha presentado su nueva Carpe, a la que ahora ha convertido en una e-bike urbana con el Shimano EP6 y una batería de 420 Wh para ofrecer una alternativa con un precio muy atractivo. Y en el extremo casi opuesto Pivot nos presentó la Mach 4 SL, una XC de doble suspensión que permite cambiar el recorrido trasero entre 120 y 110 mm. Pero uno de los temas que más tiempo nos ha llevado, no por la bici en si, ya que por ahora no saldrá a la venta, sino por las implicaciones que tiene lo sucedido para la industria europea, es el proyecto de la FOCUS JAM² NEXT.

In this week's episode of the BikeRadar Podcast, Simon von Bromley laments Cannondale's decision to update the SuperSix EVO, rather than the SystemSix – a bike that's close to his heart. As ever, Simon is joined by faithful companion, Jack Luke, with the pair discussing Komoot's curious introduction of a ChatGPT-powered route creator. They then move onto last week's most read story on BikeRadar – a look into the challenges Basso faces as a bike brand manufacturing in Europe. Learn more about your ad choices.

El pasado 2 de enero fallecía Joe Montgomery, fundador de Cannondale, a los 86 años. Por eso nos hemos reunido para grabar este podcast recordando su figura, la importancia que ha tenido en la industria y en el desarrollo de un deporte como el MTB y la impronta que ha dejado en una marca como Cannondale que siempre se ha caracterizado por apostar al máximo por la innovación y no dejar a nadie indiferente. En gran parte responsable de la entrada del aluminio como material para la fabricación de cuadros de bicicleta, su primer producto fue un carro, el “The Bugger” que permitía llevar carga en prácticamente cualquier bicicleta. Ya que al hecho de apostar por materiales ligeros y resistentes se unía el hecho de contar con un anclaje a la tija que lo hacía, prácticamente, universal. En este podcast con José Crespillo, nuestro hombre #ClassicMTB y el más indicado para guiarnos en este viaje por la historia de la marca y de su fundador, recordamos los grandes aportes que hizo Cannondale a la industria del ciclismo, su importancia en el desarrollo de un nuevo deporte como fue el MTB en los años 80, de su particular forma de entender la industria y la producción (hay que recordar que, siendo responsables de llevar a la producción en masa algunas de las mejores innovaciones, Cannondale mantuvo su producción en USA hasta el año 2009). Repasamos algunos de los modelos icónicos que ha tenido la marca (la Cannondale Raven, la F2000), sus innovaciones como las horquillas Headshock y posteriormente la Lefty, los componentes Coda... y también de las grandes estrategias de marketing y patrocinio como el famoso equipo Volvo Cannodale o el Saeco del “Legalize my Cannondale) y de los fracasos que llevaron a la empresa a la bancarrota como el proyecto de la motocross Cannondale MX400. Un pequeño homenaje a un hombre que entendió la pasión que despierta este deporte y que ha logrado que la marca lo mantenga a lo largo de todos estos años.

In this week's episode of the BikeRadar podcast, Jack Luke is joined by Simon von Bromley to discuss the week's biggest tech stories in cycling. First up is the news that Cannondale's CAAD14 has leaked. The highly anticipated aluminium road bike looks like it might be about to launch imminently, and we've got all the details you need to know. Following this, Jack and Simon discuss BBB's intriguing new CoreCap Presta valve adaptors, and the news that Rose bikes has re-entered the UK market. This week's rant of the week sees Simon bemoan the proliferation of subscription services in cycling and general life. Hardly an original thought, but he does have some concerns about where all this might be heading. Finally, we finish on our top story from the Christmas period – a piece by freelance writer, Charlie Allenby, about whether an enormous VO2 Max is enough to be a pro cyclist.

Som et nyt format i Bak Lane gæster min gode ven, Michael Valgren, podcasten til en aktuel snak, om hvad der rører sig i cykelsporten pt. Valgren røber lidt af sin vintertræning, teaser for en ny hurtig Cannondale-ramme samt målsætninger og løbsprogram for 2026.  Vi vil prøve at catche op med hinanden i løbet af 2026-sæsonen, så kom gerne med et bud på formattet. Måske I kan gøre det bedre end "Valle og Volmer" og "Bak Lane med den lyserøde panter fra Thy".  Vært: Lars Bak Gæst: Michael Valgren Bak Lane er produceret af Anders Mielke / Forhjulslir.

If you have logged onto LinkedIn anytime in the last year, chances are you already know Juansi Vivo. Juansi has become one of the most candid—and provocative—voices in our feed, posting daily critiques that challenge how we do business.Before he was a digital thought leader, Juansi was a project manager in Spanish academia with a secure job for life. In this episode, we talk about the personal tragedy that forced him to quit that safety net and dive headfirst into the cycling world—working with major players like Cannondale, BMC, and Orbea.We discuss why he believes the industry is currently "inbreeding"—talking only to itself—and we break down his central argument: that we are leaving money on the table by ignoring 95% of the population. He calls them "Los Ignorados"—the ignored ones.Read the latest 'The Business of Cycling' BlogSign up for 'The Business of Cycling' Newsletter

Today, we're kicking off a new series for Bikes and Big Ideas: we're setting out to identify the best bikes of the 21st century from over 30 brands. We've done a similar series over on our Gear:30 podcast for skis, but that was easy compared to doing the same for bikes.Over the next couple of weeks, you'll be hearing about our choices. We're also including a survey, as we want to hear from you. Additionally, we'll be sending the same survey to some bike industry luminaries, too.Once we've reviewed an array of brands, we'll discuss how our selections align with your answers.And for our grand finale of this series, we're going to offer our choices for the Very Best Bikes of the Century. It may seem like an impossible task, but we're hoping we can agree on a top 10, maybe even a top 3, and if the stars align, one single bike. Or, we may never speak to each other again, but we're willing to take that risk.Part 1 kicks off with Simon Stewart, David Golay, Dylan Wood, and Xan Marshland.Note: We Want to Hear From You!Please let us know if there's a topic you'd like us to cover or a guest you'd like us to have on Bikes and Big Ideas.

We dive into his thoughts on the 2025 Downhill World Cup season, and some of the exciting young riders coming through the ranks right now.

Today's show takes a deep dive into two new bikes at opposite ends of all the spectrums: State's no-fuss 4130 All-Road sells for under $1,000 USD, and Cannondale's Topstone Lefty Gravel bike that employs a single-sided suspension fork and 30mm of rear-wheel-travel via a clever system combining built-in frame flex with a single pivot. Alvin, Josh, and Levy also dissect Zwift's new outdoor ride-tracking feature that may (or may not) eventually challenge Strava as many people's go-to app, and Alvin reports back on how using shorter cranks for the last five months has propelled him to new heights and watts... or maybe not? 

This week we've got wireless shifting on our minds. Campagnolo's new 13-speed wireless continues to be seen out in the wild, now at the Giro d'Italia. Dave has had his hands on WheelTop's latest wireless mountain bike derailleur and shifter. And SRAM has an option to upgrade its new mechanical T70/T90 system to wireless, and nope, we're not joking.Additionally, Ronan is feeling misunderstood. We warn about using modern Ai-type tech in your repair endeavours. And of course, there's plenty more.As always, Escape Collective members will hear our popular Ask a Wrench segment. This week, Zach Edwards (Boulder Groupetto) and Dave Rome answer member-submitted questions related to fixing tubeless punctures in road tyres, the complications of Cannondale's Ai asymmetry, and we provide some thoughts on the best tyre setups for amateur racing across multiple disciplines. As a reminder, you'll need to be a member of Escape Collective (go here) in order to access this popular segment of the podcast.

New Tech Alert: A speedy all-road bike with all the tire clearance, an unreleased (and still embargoed) gravel bike, and a clever gravel suspension fork from DT Swiss make this a gear-focused show.  Senior Tech Editor Alvin Holbrook chats with Levy about riding Cannondale's completely redesigned Synapse that offers massive tire clearance, a best-in-class storage box, and integrated lighting that (might) finally make sense. Further, he explains how one battery powers all of it and the AXS derailleur. The price? $16,499.  He's also spent some time on a new gravel suspension fork from DT Swiss that features integrated brake hose routing and aero-ish shaping, and even got to use one while racing a very wet Traka 100 in Spain just a few days ago.  Topics covered: First Ride: The New Cannondale Synapse Road Bike Gets Gravel Tire Clearance and Integrated Lights Canyon's Unreleased Gravel Suspension Fork Surfaces Again at The Traka The Bikes of the 2025 Traka Gravel Race

How is it that a product can be raced by a professional, in a professional event, and that the media aren't allowed to tell all? It's become a surprisingly common occurrence, and in this episode, you'll hear Ronan Mc Laughlin and Dave Rome explain how it all works.You'll also hear about Campagnolo's latest spotted new drivetrain, and why it likely spells a wider change to 13-speed. Also, Ronan and Dave discuss the new Cannondale Synapse and its rather confusing overlap with other bikes in Cannondale's range. The conversation then moves to cover other new products and industry news.Finally, Escape Collective members will hear our popular Ask a Wrench segment. This week, Ronan and Dave answer member-submitted questions related to their favourite Co2 inflator heads (and preferred alternatives), an update to the Classified two-speed hub system, and calibrating power meters.

Cannondale has launched a new Synapse endurance bike, with 42mm tyre clearance, an aero-influenced frame, down tube storage and a reimagined SmartSense system that's, well, much smarter than before. It's a bike that, on paper, represents the evolution of the latest endurances bike – a category that's in rude health. In this podcast, George Scott quizzes Warren Rossiter on the new Synapse, and the essential features of an endurance bike in 2025.

Yesterday, we shared the first part of Isaac Seidel's story, providing insight into his life and the events leading up to his disappearance. You learned that Isaac vanished along with his bike, phone, and backpack, leaving behind everything else at his home. Isaac hadn't mentioned to anyone that he had plans to go anywhere. In fact, it appeared that Isaac was simply going about his usual Sunday routine. He had chicken thawing, something he regularly did to prep meals for the week. It seemed he set out for a bike ride, intending to return in time for dinner. But something happened to Isaac, and several years later, his whereabouts remain unknown.If you have any information about Isaac Seidel's disappearance, please contact the Pennsylvania State Police at (717) 567-3110.

Isaac Seidel, a 36-year-old man from Blain, Pennsylvania, disappeared on September 12, 2021. His loved ones grew concerned when Isaac missed several days of work, prompting them to visit his home. There, they discovered a chilling scene: Isaac, who lived alone, was gone, but his bicycle, backpack, and phone were missing. Everything else seemed untouched, including chicken thawing in the sink, suggesting he had planned to return home to cook dinner.Initially, Isaac's family feared he might have suffered a tragic accident, and they began combing the roads near his home, searching ditches and ravines, but found no trace of him. Now, several years later, they continue to search for answers, holding onto hope that they will uncover the truth behind his disappearance.If you have any information regarding Isaac Seidel's whereabouts, please contact the Pennsylvania State Police at (717) 567-3110. Isaac was last seen with his dark green Cannondale bicycle.You can follow Isaac's case on social media at Find Isaac Seidel.

Josh Bryceland, aka Ratboy, is a huge fan favourite. After stepping away from World Cup racing after his 2016 season, we've seen Josh change his focus. But after all those years away, will we finally see him back between the tape at a downhill World Cup? Join me as Josh and I catch up on the last few years. Hear how his use of psychedelics has informed some of his decision making.

We are all excited to watch our pod guest, USA Olympian, Kristen Faulkner compete in the Paris 2024 Olympic Road Race. Reposting this convo. When Kristen Faulkner moved to New York City to pursue her career in finance and venture capital, she thought getting into the sport of triathlon would be a fun athletic activity. She already loved running and swimming and was on the varsity teams in high school.  She was also on the varsity rowing team while studying at Harvard. Clearly athletics was in her DNA.  Cycling however was her weakest link, so she joined a local cycling organization here in New York City to improve her technique and confidence on the bike. Kristen is now on Team EF-Oatly-Cannondale as of 2024. Kristen and I sync up about what it was like growing up in Homer, Alaska, moving to NYC, then California, and now living in Girona, Spain. We talk about she loves about cycling, how she went from recreational cyclist and a career in venture capital and finance to becoming a professional cyclist. We discuss our mutual love of Zwift and how she got in to E-racing, she talks about her love of gravel cycling and I get the scoop on what she reading and watching when shes not on her bike! Kristen and I caught up before the official teams were announced for the the tour and she was about to compete in the Tour de Suisse, where she came in second overall final. Some other 2022 race stats include two stage wins at Giro Donne and third overall at Itzulia Womens Stage Race.

The Sea Otter Classic just wrapped up literally a few days ago, but clearly someone forgot to turn off the tap of new bikes and gear. Cervelo just announced a redesign of its ultra-popular Aspero gravel bike, and clearly put a lot of thought into what needed to change – and perhaps more importantly, what didn't. Colnago also just dropped a new gravel bike of its own, the G4X, and Giant finally revamped its Trinity TT bike – no more rim brakes! Dave and James also chat about the eight billion tubeless valve stems out on the market, our favorite mountain bike computer mounts, and some of the latest happenings on the industry side.Escape Collective's podcasts are made possible by our members.
