Summary

Thanks to Feedback Sports for sponsoring this video https://feedbacksports.com/ We added the real cost of Tadej Pogačar’s custom Colnago Y1Rs and the results are staggering! In this week’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast, Simon and Warren discuss whether pro road cycling should have a cost cap for bikes – like has been recently introduced for the track. Following that, Simon quizzes Warren about his review of the new Cervélo Soloist, and why Warren thinks it’s a better bike for most riders than the R5 or S5. Lastly, in this week’s news in brief, Simon and Warren discuss the ‘bad hotels’ drama from this year’s Tour de France, and Pogačar’s call for an overhaul of pro road cycling's race calendar. Is it fair to make elite athletes sleep in shoddy hotels and what’s holding back calendar reform? Tune in to find out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
