Die meisten Fahrräder mit elektrischem Antrieb – die Pedelecs – liegen in einer ziemlich praktischen rechtlichen Kategorie: Unter bestimmten und durchaus praxisnahen Voraussetzungen (Tretunterstützung bis 25 km/h, maximal 250 Watt Dauerleistung etc.) sind sie normalen Fahrrädern gleichgestellt. Die Definition ist allerdings löchrig. Parameter wie zulässiges Gesamtgesicht, kurzzeitige Höchstleistung, Mehrspurigkeit und Abmessungen des Gefährts sind bislang kaum bis gar nicht reguliert. In dieser Folge des c't uplink geht es um die technischen Entwicklungen und wie Hersteller selbst derzeit versuchen, sich auf Maximalparameter zu einigen – um zu verhindern, dass die Politik irgendwann so hart eingreift, dass sämtliche Pedelecs versicherungspflichtig werden.

Wat jarenlang bekendstond als RIDE Magazine, gaat vanaf deze editie verder onder de nieuwe naam Wielerflits Magazine. De mijlpaal werd gevierd bij Canyon en Concourse Zuid in Amsterdam met een live podcast, een netwerkborrel en als bijzondere gasten oud-profs Steven Rooks en Michel Cornelisse.De naamswijziging hing al langer in de lucht, maar nu was er dan ook echt de lancering. Hoofdredacteur Maxim Horssels, RIDE-oprichter Rodrick de Munnik en hoofdverslaggever Raymond Kerckhoffs namen samen die stap. "Eigenlijk had ik het zelf als optie afgeschoten," gaf Horssels toe tijdens de live podcast. Maar de logica bleek onweerlegbaar.De Munnik vertelde hoe hij het omslagpunt beleefde: tijdens een dag in de neutrale auto van Shimano (de reportage staat in dit zomernummer) vroeg de neutrale auto-chaffeur waar hij voor werkte. "RIDE Magazine," zei De Munnik. "Nooit van gehoord," was het antwoord.  Toen Roderick toevoegde dat het het tijdschrift van Wielerflits was, was de reactie direct: "Oh, Wielerflits!" Kerckhoffs vulde aan dat twee namen in leven houden gewoon niet meer werkte: dubbele social accounts, dubbele banners, dubbele inspanning. "En nu staat de naam Wielerflits ook op het magazine."Het inhoudelijke hart van de middag was de live podcastopname, waarbij Steven Rooks en Michel Cornelisse aanschoven. De gesprekken gingen van de zwaarte van moderne parcoursen — Raymond schreef er een opiniestuk over in het nieuwe nummer — tot de vraag of Jonas Vingegaard dit jaar dichter bij Tadej Pogačar kan komen in de Tour de France. Rooks, die in 1988 als Noord-Hollander de bergtrui won op Alpe d'Huez, sprak met merkbare nostalgie over die overwinning. "Dat reporters en verslaggevers zo enthousiast zijn, terwijl jij op dat moment bezig bent met de finish, dat merk je pas later. Leo Driessen, die destijds op de motor zat voor Radio Tour de France, is inmiddels een goede vriend. Ik heb het bandje van die opname nog."Cornelisse, die de Tour nooit als renner reed maar er wel als ploegleider bij was, haalde zijn mooiste herinnering op: de eerste gele trui van Mathieu van der Poel op de Mûr de Bretagne. "We zaten in de auto: wat ben je nou aan het doen, man? Iedereen die daar demarreerde, werd er gelijk afgereden. En hij deed het gewoon twee keer."De lancering vond plaats in het pand van Concourse Zuid in Amsterdam, waar de enige Canyon Experience Partner van Nederland te vinden is. In het nieuwe nummer lees je een uitgebreid interview met Canyon-CEO Roman Arnold. Door Roderick omschreven als een van de meest indrukwekkende ondernemersverhalen in de fietswereld. "Vanuit de achterbak van zijn auto is hij begonnen. 26 stappen verder is daar Canyon uitgekomen."Na afloop van de podcast was er ruim tijd voor een netwerkborrel, waar wielerfans, abonnees en mensen uit de fietsbranche met elkaar bijpraatten. Alle aanwezigen namen een exemplaar van het nieuwe Wielerflits Magazine mee naar huis.

We took the mobile studio down to Lewisville, Texas, to sit down with local legends Carlos and Lisa Uranga at the brand-new Full Gas Cycling Fit Studio. Before we dive into the black magic of bike fitting, Brad and Kevin debrief the absolute mudfest at Unbound 2024. We break down Keegan Swenson's F1-style pit stops, the utter dominance of the Specialized Crux, and the momentum building behind Scott's winning 32-inch prototype in the XL field.Then, we get down to the nuts and bolts of how a proper bike fit can give you free watts, fix that nagging lower back pain, and keep you smiling on those ultra-endurance pushes. Carlos and Lisa break down why buying a bike before getting fit is a massive gamble—especially in the era of expensive, integrated cockpits. Whether you are building up a brand-new MOG, tweaking a trusty Fargo, or stubbornly mashing a single-speed, this episode is packed with fit philosophy that will change how you look at your rig.In this episode, we cover:The Unbound 2024 Fallout: Mud, marginal gains, and why a good team dynamic is just as important as tire clearance.The 32-Inch Wheel Revolution: Will it become the new standard for ultra-endurance and bikepacking?The Pre-Purchase Fit: Why you should get mapped on a fit bike before dropping $10k on a rig with an integrated cockpit.Short Crank Science: The mechanical advantage of dropping down to 160mm or 165mm cranks to open up your hip angle and improve aerodynamics.Solving the "Hot Foot": Why standard wide shoes (we're looking at you, Shimano) might be failing you, and how surface area, socks, and custom insoles make or break a 100-mile ride.Direct-to-Consumer Risks: The pros and cons of buying Chinese carbon frames like X-Lab or Quick Pro without a proper geometry consultation.Links & Resources:Full Gas Cycling Fit Studio: fullgasfitstudio.comFind Carlos & Lisa Urrenga's studio off 121 in Lewisville, TX for your next pre-purchase mapping or fit follow-up.0:00 New Location Intro00:22 Meet Full Gas Fit Studio01:31 Unbound Tech Talk 32s05:27 Fit Implications of 32s08:54 Unbound Weather Recap11:11 Wheel Swap Drama14:12 Crux Bike vs Talent16:14 Fit Basics Stack Reach21:57 Buy Fit Before Bike27:28 Integrated Cockpit Headaches34:18 Hot Feet Troubleshooting39:49 Fitting Riders on Flats40:58 Flats Versus Clips41:47 Leg Length Shims42:40 Short Crank Setup44:27 Q Factor Explained45:10 Pedal Options Today47:04 Fit Across Bike Types50:02 Goals Drive Fit51:35 Common Pain Triggers52:50 How Often Refit55:53 Injuries And Compensation57:41 Tools And Assessments59:47 Free Watts For All01:01:14 Modern MTB Geometry01:02:44 Droppers And Setback01:05:24 Hip Angle Blood Flow01:08:08 Watching Pros Critically01:09:52 Three Contact Points01:11:55 Ultra Endurance Fits01:14:16 Pre Fit Before Buying01:17:34 Partnering With Shops01:20:14 Fit Included On 10K Bikes01:20:38 Custom Spec Bikes01:21:05 Booking a Fit01:21:57 Four Hour Fit Day01:23:30 When MOG Won't Fit01:24:38 Testing Cockpits Fast01:26:00 Fit Bike vs Your Bike01:27:19 Pricing and Transfers01:28:24 Why Fits Matter01:30:48 Follow Ups and Fees01:33:54 Crank Length Debate01:37:07 Short Cranks Stories01:44:45 Trends and Geometry01:46:08 DTC Brands and LBS01:50:03 Wrong Bike Problem01:51:32 Wrap Up and Contact

We build durable cyclists. New performance videos every week on YouTube:

In November 1927, a young Italian racer named Tullio Campagnolo stood freezing on a mountain pass in the Dolomites, unable to change gear because his hands were too cold to loosen his wheel nuts. That moment changed cycling forever. Campagnolo would go on to invent the quick-release skewer, pioneer the modern derailleur, and build the components that carried legends like Coppi, Merckx, Hinault, Pantani, and Pogačar to victory. For decades, Campagnolo was cycling. So how did the company that defined the sport end up with zero teams in the 2026 WorldTour? This is the story of Campagnolo — and how greatness slowly lost the race.One of the tools you will have heard Anthony chat about in this podcast is Training Peaks.

Ingo fährt jahrelang die falschen SPD-Schuplatten und seit zwei Monaten ein neues TIME ADHX 45. Dazu viel Reifenbreiten & Roubaix-Talk! Das TIME ADHX 45 nach Ingos Wünschen: Warum überhaupt ein TIME? Was war der Entscheidungsgrund? SPD Cleats sind nie ein Thema! Aber das ist vielleicht genau der Fehler: keiner versteht so richtig, warum Shimano drei verschiedene Cleats im Angebot hat. Jedenfalls nicht auf Anhieb. Thema Reifen wieder mal top aktuell: Josh Poertner geht deep into Reifenbreiten, Energie, usw. Müssen Reifen noch breiter werden, weil Räder zu schnell werden? Wieder mal eine echt abwechslungsreiche Sendung mit Themen, die alle eine eigene Sendung verdient hätten.

Whether you call it basepacking or extreme endurance, we break down the water logistics, tire choices, and mental grit required to cross the country unpaved.Other highlights include:Time Trial Gains: Guest Austin Whittington breaks down the aerodynamics of elite TT racing, from shoe covers to the "10-watt bottle" rule.The 32" Salsa Fargo: First impressions of the newly announced production frames and how geometry must change to accommodate bigger hoops.Gravel 101: Effective coaching strategies for beginners and finding the "sweet spot" for introductory event distances.Event Logistics: Managing the "Distance Gravel Max" 300-miler and the importance of remote caches for self-supported riders.Industry Deep Dive: Why major brands like Shimano and Giant are facing an inventory backlash and what it means for the future of bike tech.Whether you're prepping for Unbound, scouting remote routes, or just curious if your next bike will have 32-inch wheels, this episode covers the gear and the grind of modern adventure cycling.Primary: 32-inch wheels, gravel cycling, bikepacking, The USA Trail, basepacking.Secondary: Salsa Fargo 32, cycling industry trends, time trial aerodynamics, self-supported cycling, Bradshaw Trail, gravel race logistics, Club Spinistry.Key Performance Keywords (For Metadata)

Send us Fan MailEpisode 161: Adam from Aeroo DronesThis week we are joined by Adam from Aeroo Drones to chat about their unique Australian owned fishing drone. It can carry and deploy a 1kg bait out into the ocean, can fly in 50kmph winds and can capture it all in 4k video and 12 MP photos! We chat about Adam's own fishing and talk about how the Aeroo company began and how it has grown, now having over 10,000 customers across Australia. Adam reported that SA was its 3rd biggest market and we discussed some of the great spots your could use it across the state, including the Coorong for Mulloway, Port Lincoln for sharks, Snapper across the state and even maybe a Tuna off Victor Harbor when they come in close to shore! We also discuss the big news in SA fishing this week, with the state government announcing changes to the bag limits of the 4 key species affected most by the Algal Bloom restrictions. Squidding is banned in both gulfs, the spatial closure on Whiting around the bottom of Yorkes is back for 3 months - but Spencer Gulf returns to full normal limits, garfish is closed in Gulf of St Vincents while crabbing limits are back to normal across the state. Our tackle item of the week is the new Ledge Runner lure from Shimano. This revolutionary lure comes in 2 sizes: 160 and 200mm and has the ability to swim at different depths, depending how you set the ring at the front of the lure + comes with a Hydro Control wind to maintain a stable swimming action. We also have all of the fishing reports across the state, including Barrel Tuna in the South East, while David Rocca and his mate Rob caught a squid off Edithburgh (before the bans come into place) to take out our Shimano squidding prize pack.

It's the week after the Sea Otter Classic, and the geeks speak surprisingly little of the products shown there. Instead, Ronan and Dave cover new budget drivetrains from SRAM and Shimano. Dave is thinking about unsustainable warranty policies. And there's plenty more covered from the world of cycling tech.  As a reminder, members of Escape Collective also get access to Ask a Wrench (at the end of the free episode). This week, Zach Edwards joins Dave in answering a variety of questions from members. Happy geeking! Time stamps: 00:01:29 - Should you grease headset spacers? 00:05:39 - Lifetime warranties on wear items  00:16:14 - Sea Otter - lots of 32” wheels and the rise of Chinese brands 00:31:38: - SRAM S-Series, where 9 becomes 3 00:39:54 - Shimano CUES 2x11 overlapping with Tiagra 2x11 00:45:37 - UCI vs SRAM.

Sea Otter Classic ha vuelto a ser un escaparate perfecto para todo tipo de prototipos en torno a las ruedas de 32''. Incluso, uno de esos 'protos' se impuso en formato 'mullet' (32 delante y 29 detrás) en la prueba de descenso del evento norteamericano. A nivel europeo, parece que la próxima edición de Eurobike 'toma aire' con la participación de marcas como Canyon o la propia Shimano, que hace algunas semanas había negado su presencia. En cualquier caso, la situación del evento alemán sigue siendo complicada. Hablando ya de material, nos metemos de lleno con importantes novedades como las nuevas Eagle S-Series de SRAM, que simplifican y facilitan la elección de transmisiones de acceso al MTB, los nuevos frenos Brembo GR-Pro para disciplinas 'gravity', o las dos últimas y potentes novedades de Specialized: la Turbo Levo 4 EVO y la espectacular Demo 11. La carretera y el gravel tampoco se han quedado 'huérfanos' en este episodio, pues analizamos las novedades en 2x11 de Shimano CUES para las bicicletas de ruedas finas, así como las nuevas opciones de platos y longitudes de biela que el fabricante japonés ha introducido en su familia GRX. Este episodio cuenta con el apoyo de Focus y su campaña "Beyond Numbers". Porque sí, las cifras importan —batería, potencia, recorrido— pero no lo son todo. Desde Focus nos recuerdan que el verdadero valor de una bici no está en la ficha técnica, sino en cómo se siente cuando ruedas con ella, cómo tracciona, cómo entra en curva, cómo responde en el sendero... Al final, hay cosas que no se pueden medir, solo experimentar. Así que ya sabéis, menos números… ¡y más montar en bici!

Whoa, what a week to be a cycling fan. And for the nerds among us, Roubaix rolling into Sea Otter is always great.This week Ronan, Alex, and Dave discuss some of the bigger tech finds and blunders of Roubaix and what they may spell for future products and trends. Many tangents are had. Ronan got to ride the new Colnago C72 and shares why he's always dreamed of owning a C-Series.Of course, the geeks also cover some tech news, and there's a PSA. It's a long one, but we think it's a good one! As usual, members of Escape Collective get Ask a Wrench (via the member-only podcast feeds). It's perhaps one not to miss for the chain waxers among us.Time stamps:  3:55 - New Shimano SLR pedals break cover 7:48 - MVDP not on that new Endurace 16:42 - 1x everywhere from Shimano and SRAM  25:30 - Tyres wider than first assumed?  29:00 - What's going on with all the punctures?  34;10 - Inflatable inserts from Odyssey Optis  41:30 - On your mind: The Roubaix-specific bike may still have its day again 49:15 - Roubaix's most intriguing tech picks (glue) 57:00 - Colnago's new C72  1:06:15 - Shimano finally adds crank options to GRX 1:07:15 - Dave's Tool Lust (Cushcore)  1:11:35 - Sea Otter Classic is here 1:12:15 - PSA: Be careful not to make a candle 1:17:30 - Ask a Wrench with Zach Edwards (Escape members only)  1:18:40 - Chain wax for ultra endurance applications  1:28:00 - Fixing a stuck brake hose olive  1:32:20 - Time XC pedal creak 1:39:55 - Why isn't Nitrogen used in tyres?

Hoy tenemos el placer de sentar en el podcast a una de las personas más interesantes (y necesarias) del panorama ciclista en español: Sebastián Sitko.Probablemente también una de las más incómodas.Doctor en ciencias del deporte, profesor universitario, entrenador de élite y autor de más de 70 artículos científicos… pero lo que realmente diferencia a Sitko no es su currículum. Es que no se calla. Y eso, en el ciclismo, tiene consecuencias.Acaba de publicar Ciclismo 2.0, un libro basado en evidencia científica con casi 200 estudios detrás, y aprovechamos la excusa para tener una conversación profunda, directa y sin filtros sobre entrenamiento, rendimiento y muchas de esas “verdades” que damos por hechas… y que quizá no lo son tanto.Hablamos de todo: entrenamiento de fuerza, zonas, FTP, métricas como TSS o CTL, cómo debería entrenar realmente un ciclista amateur con poco tiempo, las claves de la recuperación en carreras por etapas y hacia dónde va el futuro del entrenamiento con la llegada de la IA y el análisis de datos.Pero también entramos en terreno más incómodo.Analizamos sus series más polémicas en redes como “¿Paraísos? Ciclistas”, donde destroza (con bastante criterio y bastante mala leche) algunos de los destinos más idealizados del ciclismo, y sus análisis del Tour, donde deja entrever más de lo que dice… y dice más de lo que parece.Una charla en la que intentamos entender si ese personaje que vemos en redes es estrategia… o simplemente alguien diciendo lo que piensa sin filtros.Después de la entrevista, repasamos lo más destacado de la actualidad con una París-Roubaix muy comentada, el debate sobre los relevos a Pogacar, el ambiente alrededor de Wout van Aert, novedades de material como los nuevos pedales Shimano o la tendencia hacia neumáticos más anchos.También repasamos lo que está pasando en el panorama nacional con la Copa de España y varias carreras internacionales, y cerramos con nuestras sensaciones del fin de semana en Costa Atlántica.Un episodio diferente. De los que te hacen pensar. Y seguramente, de los que generan debate.Dale al play.LINKS DE INTERÉS:LIBRO: https://sitkotraining.com/libro/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/sitkotraining/MADRID GRAVEL TOUR: https://bicilab.es/MGT26/

La nueva Canyon Endurace CFR nos ha llevado a hablar, inevitablemente, de clásicas... sobre todo de la Paris-Roubaix y algunas de las polémicas surgidas en torno a ella. Un evento, El Infierno del Norte, donde se han podido ver neumáticos de gran balón, como los recientemente lanzados por Vittoria y Bontrager para todas aquellas superficies que exigen un plus de resistencia. Sin dejar la carretera, nos adentramos en el Project Airbag de Van Rysel y su viabilidad no solo en el pelotón profesional, sino en el aficionado final, así como en la nueva gama textil de Castelli para primavera-verano. Antes de pasar al MTB, hacemos una pequeña incursión en el segmento urbano para analizar la llegada de la nueva Specialized Turbo Vado 3, que aumenta su potencia y autonomía para ser aún más capaz y versátil. Siguen apareciendo más bicis con sistema Avinox, como la Rotwild R.EXC, que monta concretamente el M2S para acompañar un equipamiento de e-enduro muy, muy radical. Analizamos también las nuevas funcionalidades del sistema full power de Mahle, el M40, cada vez más interesante y refinado, y que podría ser una seria alternativa para todas aquellas marcas que quieran apostar por tecnología europea. Y cerramos el episodio con otras novedades interesantes como la nueva Cannondale Bad Habit, el FOX Float Live Valve Neo, la horquilla XFusion Roamin, los nuevos pedales Shimano de plataforma y los nuevos cascos y neumáticos de Specialized. Este episodio cuenta con el apoyo de Focus y su campaña "Beyond Numbers'. Porque sí, las cifras importan —batería, potencia, recorrido— pero no lo son todo. Desde Focus nos recuerdan que el verdadero valor de una bici no está en la ficha técnica, sino en cómo se siente cuando ruedas con ella, cómo tracciona, cómo entra en curva, cómo responde en el sendero... Al final, hay cosas que no se pueden medir, solo experimentar. Así que ya sabéis, menos números… ¡y más montar en bici! Tenéis más información sobre “Beyond Numbers” en la web de Focus".

Today we have a killer show that ends with a KILLER deal, on one of the best selling rods of the last 5-10 years! It's a deal so good, you have to do a double take, but I promise, it's real. We also tackle the topic of scented soft plastics in this week's fishing poll, and in the mailbag we discuss rod and reel cleaning, the Tatula X vs Shimano SLX XT, budget musky setups, and more!   LINK TO ARDENT REEL CLEANING KIT: https://amzn.to/41hC14E   Tackle Talk is presented by:  The Rod Locker | www.therodlocker.com | Promo Code: TACKLETALKAPRIL   Additional support provided by: Amped Outdoors | www.ampedoutdoors.com  Humminbird | www.humminbird.com Minn Kota | www.minnkotamotors.com

A viral Reddit thread about Shimano Cues shifting failures reveals a deeper issue — Shimano's new unified groupset ecosystem is creating tolerance problems that open the door for SRAM at the entry level. We break down why the engineering is sound but the strategy is flawed.The Cycling Brief — Daily cycling intelligence, produced by SEMIPRO CYCLING. 

La Absa Cape Epic no es una carrera cualquiera… y en este episodio monográfico te lo demostramos. Analizamos todo lo que ha ocurrido en esta edición 2026, desde la competición profesional hasta lo más importante: cómo hemos vivido nosotros la carrera desde dentro como BiciLAB.Arrancamos con un repaso claro y directo a la carrera PRO: cinco equipos protagonistas (Specialized, Wilier, Canyon, Buff BH y Klimatiza), cinco victorias diferentes que reflejan el nivel brutal de esta edición, y una general que ha ido cambiando de manos en un auténtico pulso entre gigantes.Pero más allá de los resultados, nos metemos en lo que hace única a la Cape Epic. Hablamos de su recorrido, de la dureza física y técnica, y de ese “aura” que solo entiendes cuando estás allí. No hay otra carrera igual. Y te explicamos por qué.Después entramos en lo que de verdad te interesa: nuestra Cape Epic. Cómo hemos vivido la experiencia desde dentro, la convivencia con equipos PRO, el día a día con otros creadores de contenido, los vídeos que hemos grabado, y todo el contenido paralelo (Zugasti, ANE, podcast sin filtros…). Sensaciones reales, sin postureo.Jota se marca uno de los análisis más potentes del episodio hablando de material: frenos y combinaciones XTR, elección de neumáticos, el debate del plato 34 vs 36, comportamiento de las bicis, transmisión inalámbrica, mandos de suspensión, cámaras, micros… todo lo que marca la diferencia cuando estás al límite.También hablamos de lo que no suele contarse: aciertos y errores. Desde el servicio mecánico hasta la gestión de carrera o los masajes. Lo que repetiríamos… y lo que no.Y por supuesto, no evitamos las polémicas: la sanción comparada con 2023, la victoria por 32 segundos y el tema de la competición femenina.Cerramos con una de las preguntas clave: ¿cuánto cuesta correr la Cape Epic? Desglosamos números reales (inscripción, vuelos, alojamiento, vehículos, extras…) y te contamos cómo ha sido nuestra expedición. Aquí toca agradecer, sin rodeos, a quienes lo han hecho posible: BH, Nutrinovex, Shimano y Soljet.Y terminamos con la gran pregunta:¿merece la pena la Cape Epic?Dale al play. Este episodio es probablemente el más completo que hemos hecho sobre la Epic.

This week, we have tech editors Ronan Mc Laughlin and Josh Weinberg coming in from opposite ends of the world, both in dimly lit hotel rooms, and without their usual podcast recording equipment. It's only up from here!  In the first section, Dave Rome chats to Ronan about his previous day touring Pirelli. Then Dave reminds us of the real-world compromises that 1x shifting continues to battle. Also, you'll hear a rant, and Ronan has a Good Thing that many probably already own.  Next stop is Dave catching up with our US tech editor Josh Weinberg, who finds himself in Taiwan for the Taipei Cycle Show.  And finally, members of Escape Collective (who get access to everything we do at Escape Collective), can tune in for our popular Ask a Wrench segment, where Dave and pro mechanic Zach Edwards answer technical questions from members. Finally, the day has come for Geek Warning to be a motion picture. You'll now find episodes on YouTube, too.    Happy Geeking!    Time stamps:    4:40 - Touring Pirelli HQ  12:00 - Pirelli's new flagship race tyre 18:00 - Wolf Tooth's new flagship Mark Zero range 21:40 - The real world compromises of 1x shifting  34:00 - Content creation that has Dave ranting  40:20 - Ronan's Good Thing that you may already own - 44:45 - Taipei Cycle Show with Josh  52:00 - 32er manufacturing is brewing, 3D printing, and other trends 1:07:00 - Ask a Wrench (members only)  1:08:00 - Shimano brakes gone bad if not used  1:17:30 - Stuck tyre bead on rim.

Reach out and touch us: shiftlesslive@gmail.comThe hosts discuss new chairs, early fall weather in Texas, and windy bike rides, then shift to home projects including installing a built-in ice maker and outfitting a “meat and cheese room” with grinders, slicer, sausage stuffer, mixers, refrigeration conversions, and planned purchases like a stainless table, cheese press, and chamber vacuum sealer, aiming to process and sell packaged meats and preserves. They review an email about the Coros Dura bike computer's touchscreen, strong battery life, and route-loading limitations, and talk about 32-inch wheel development, supply-chain constraints, and prototype builds. The conversation covers new drivetrain options (Ratio modular derailleur), debating electronic shifting, Schwalbe radial tires for an e-bike, riding an e-bike and even a Brompton on trails, and brief cycling-industry news including Lycra's Chapter 11 filing and Shimano's $11.5M penalty over a crank recall. They also plan food logistics for a St. Joe Open Air event using Blackstones and discuss a documentary on Mariah Wilson.00:00 High on Life Opener00:24 Texas Weather Whiplash02:17 Van AC Setup Talk04:09 Kitchen Pass and Coolers04:45 Meat Room Gear Shopping07:55 Dry Aging Fridge Build09:32 Chamber Vac and Sales Plan13:31 Email Coros Dura Review17:38 32 Inch Wheels Coming20:33 Caleb No Show Update23:12 32 Inch Prototype Bike24:26 Ratio Modular Derailleur28:35 Going Electronic Shifting36:36 Trinity Trio and E-Bike Test38:36 Tributary Tire Experiment39:09 Schwalbe Radials Wishlist40:01 California Trip Plans41:05 Brompton On Singletrack42:52 Picking Radial Tire Models46:00 Radial Pressure Benefits46:34 Bike Industry News Roundup48:24 Mo Wilson Media Talk54:54 Salsa Fargo And Flyway57:04 Titanium Vs Carbon Parts01:00:42 St Joe Event Food Plan01:05:03 Trinity Trio Rider Story01:08:58 Gravel To MTB Pipeline01:12:48 Bike Lanes And Traffic Vibes01:15:48 DFW Airport And Costco Rant01:19:43 Wrap Up And Ride Bikes

In this episode of the Mastering Rod Building Podcast, Bill Falconer talks with Captain John Irwin of Fly Right Charters about matching rods, reels, line, and technique into a complete fishing system for inshore, nearshore, and offshore fishing.John shares how a lifetime of fishing, from freshwater and fly fishing as a kid to guiding full time in the Charleston area since 2002, shaped his approach to tackle selection and made versatility a core part of his business. As a guide who splits time between fly and conventional fishing, he brings a broad perspective to building outfits that truly fit the application.They break down how he thinks about pairing rods and reels for real world performance, including why longer, softer tipped spinning rods help cast light artificials farther to spooky shallow water fish, why shorter rods shine around docks and close targets, and how reel size, spool design, braid, and leader choice all work together to improve casting, balance, and fishability.On the broader tackle side, John explains why durability and system balance matter more than specs on paper, how he rigs for everything from redfish and sheepshead to cobia and bottom species, and why investing in quality reels that can be serviced over time pays off for anglers and rod builders alike.Mastering Rod Building is brought to you by Anglers Resource — your source for genuine Fuji Tackle components.Where to buy genuine FUJI®️ rod components (Area Distributors)Japan: FIRST Corporation — https://first-fuji.co.jp/ • mail@first-fuji.co.jpAmerican Continent (North & South America): Anglers Resource — https://anglersresource.net/ • info@anglersresource.netOceania: Frogleys Offshore — https://fujitackle.com.au • enquiries@frogleysoffshore.com.auSpain/Czech/Finland/Sweden/Estonia/Latvia/Poland/Denmark/Belgium/Germany/Netherlands/Ireland/Luxembourg/France/Portugal/UK/Norway/Belarus/Ukraine/Russia:: CALICO S.A.

Send a textIn this spontaneous edition of the road.cc Podcast, Ryan is joined by Jack Sexty, Mat Brett and Stu Kerton to discuss Shimano's surprising revamp of its popular fourth tier Tiagra groupset. The reason this is so surprising to us is not just because we were left to surmise that the groupset would eventually be phased out - it's because we were all but told this would be the case in a presentation distributed to the media shortly before the launch of Shimano CUES, the company's range of 9-, 10- and 11-speed components aimed at more recreational riders and commuting.  In that presentation, Shimano said its 'mid-tier' road and mountain bike groupsets (below 105 and SLX level) would be unified under the CUES brand, which surely meant Tiagra, Sora and Claris would be chopped... but now we've been told that's not what was being said, and Shimano never explicitly said Tiagra would be phased out. Could have fooled us! Shimano also introduced a mechanical, 12-speed Shimano 105 groupset when it said that wouldn't happen following the launch of 105 Di2  in 2022... so, is all this flip-flopping and U-turning a worrying sign for the world's largest manufacturer of bicycle components, or is it a good thing that a company of Shimano's size can improvise and give the people what they're asking for? The road.cc tech nerds dig into the details based off what they know so far. 

This week on the GCN Show, we dive into the "prohibitive" cost of cycling and investigate if the sport is actually cheaper than ever thanks to a booming second-hand market. We also explore a bizarre new scientific study suggesting that training in a hot tub could significantly boost your FTP. Plus, Dan recounts the moment he was overtaken by a World Champion while riding flat-out, and we take a look at Shimano's latest "self-tightening" shoe patent.

Have you experienced certain models of Shimano 12-speed chains rusting more easily than expected? It's one of many topics in this week's Geek Warning, the cycling tech podcast from Escape Collective. This week, Suvi, Alex, and Dave also discuss limitations and concerns regarding the fast-arriving 32in wheels. There's talk of new bikes. And what we carry for fixing tubeless punctures. Those on our member-only feeds also get access to Ask a Wrench, where this week Colorado-based pro mechanic Colin Williams joins Dave for the first time. Happy geeking! Time stamps: 1:40 - Trek's new XC bike has been spotted 6:40 - Big (32”) wheels continue to gain momentum, but maybe we should pump the brakes?  18:00 -  Basso's new gravel bike  22:30 - Do 12-speed Shimano chains have a rust issue?  31:00 - Tubeless tyre plugging  42:30 - What we've finished working on  45:00 - Ask a Wrench (Member-only, with pro mechanic Colin Williams)  46:00 - When cutting carbon goes wrong  51:00 - Are there short-cuts to setting up SRAM Transmission?  58:40 - Tips for gravel racing in sand  1:04:00 - Specialized FutureShock headset tips

After spending a few thousand miles on the new Shimano GRX/XTR Di2 mullet (yep, flows right off the tongue), Drew Van Kampen and Logan Jones-Wilkins dig deep into their feelings, sensations, and opinions around the new electronic offering from the Japanese component giant. In line with their reviews of the SRAM XPLR update, a detailed look at the TRP Vistar/Classified groupset, and hopefully more reviews to come, Drew and Logan looked at the groupset from a few different perspectives. This time, both also made some big claims on how it all stacks up against other groupsets, a small tangent into crank lengths and power meters, and one (1) small rant on the pursuit of 13 speeds.

Big wheels, a product recall, and another rant about poor bike design – oh yes, it's time for Geek Warning.This week Dave and Ronan return to your digital radios. On the list is a sneaky disappearance of a liked SRAM product, news from UCI regarding 32in wheels, and a recall from Trek. Some time on the tools has Dave ranting about a particularly bad example of internal cable routing, and of course, there's a PSA.Members of Escape Collective get access to the full episode, which includes our popular Ask a Wrench segment (this week with pro race mechanic Brad Copeland). Just a note that we had an audio issue, and so Ask a Wrench this week has us answering two questions rather than the usual three. Still, there's plenty of ground covered.Happy geeking!Time stamps:4:00 - SRAM quietly discontinues older AXS rim brake options7:20 - UCI leaves the door open to 32in wheels in MTB12:00 - Trek's big recall of little things17:10 - Rant time from Dave24:00 - PSA for another place to look for a creak29:00 - Ask a Wrench (Members Only)32:00 - Corrections Corner for the previous Ask a Wrench34:00 - Can a chainring wear out before a chain?41:00 - Shimano 105 shifter levers not engaging

Jeez, that Dave and Ronan can sure ramble on about a new groupset. Indeed, this week's Geek Warning has the geeks geeking over Campagnolo's much-awaited release of 1x13 wireless. They chat about what's new, the limitations of a single chainring for general road riding, and why the future for the iconic Italian manufacturer seems brighter.While that chat may be a little premium for some tastes, the rest of the episode is all about more practical things.

Madrone Cycles got its start making parts to repair a variety of SRAM mountain bike derailleurs, but now they're taking on a much more ambitious project: building their own derailleur from the ground up. Third-party derailleurs had a brief run in the earlier days of mountain biking, but SRAM and Shimano have completely dominated the market for decades now. So why is Madrone taking on the big players now, and what sets their new Jab derailleur apart? We sat down with Madrone founder, Aaron Bland, to discuss all that and more.RELATED LINKS:Blister Mountain Bike Buyer's GuideGet Our Free Newsletter & Gear GiveawaysBLISTER+ Get Yourself CoveredTOPICS & TIMES:Founding Madrone & starting with SRAM derailleur rebuilds (1:57)Electronic shifting & the resurgence of third-party mechanical derailleurs (4:02)The hardest details to get right (12:57)Evolution of the Jab design (17:25)Serviceability & Madrone's rebuild service (22:58)Clutch & pivot designs (27:43)Modularity (32:26)Jab options (41:34)What's next from Madrone?

Long-time listeners of Geek Warning are in for a treat as Zach Edwards (Boulder Groupetto) returns for a full episode. Along with Dave Rome and Alex Hunt, there is a whole lot of ultimate bike geek to this week's episode.Within, you'll hear about some unintentionally leaked information related to what's likely the next generation of Shimano road pedals.Dave then takes the conversation to an old favourite topic – chain waxing. Next, those new to cycling or less knowledgeable about the technical aspects may appreciate a dedicated new section that aims to cover topics that bike shop staff frequently repeat multiple times a week. This week, it's all about drip-on wax lubes.Of course there's some industry news to talk about, and finally a decision on the UCIs handlebar width pondering.All of that is free for all, but members of Escape Collective then get access to the Ask a Wrench segment of the podcast. Here, the geeks answer a number of member-submitted technical questions with information that should prove helpful if you're working on bikes or keen to expand your technical knowledge.Happy geeking!Time stamps:01:50 - Is a new generation of Shimano road pedals around the corner?10:40 - Chain waxing temperatures, does it matter?17:00 - Back to basics: Chain lubes31:00 - UCI adjusts and confirms its bar width ruling37:30 - YT set to close42:50 - CSS Composites closing48:00 - Ask a Wrench (Members only)48:30 - Getting perfect shifting with Shimano Tiagra56:30 - Where to begin with modern mountain bike geometry1:04:30 - Shimano 12-speed cassettes and the Adhesive Ring

Will lower gearing make for safer racing? The UCI thinks so, but it could also make all of SRAM's 1X drivetrains verboten at the highest level of competition without affecting Shimano or Campagnolo. SRAM disagrees, obviously, and has begun legal action in Europe, citing reputational damage and EU competition laws. And as you'd expect, the UCI responded yet again. That and more on this week's episode of Velo Podcast. Velo Tech Editor Josh Ross and host Mike Levy dig into the details of the UCI's potential 10.46-meter rollout rule and why SRAM's 10-tooth cog doesn't comply, safer courses versus lower gearing, and the UCI's near silence when it comes to so many issues. We also discuss the UCI president's social media post congratulating Tadej Pogacar on his TT World Champs victory in Rwanda, despite Remco being the actual victor, and we look at Alvin's first impressions of Factor's new Aluto gravel bike.
