Summary

Thanks to Feedback Sports for sponsoring this video https://feedbacksports.com/ In this week’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast, Jack Luke joins Simon von Bromley to cover the big cycling tech stories of the week. Cycling’s Holy Week is nearly upon us, and with that in mind, Jack and Simon have delved deep into the BikeRadar archive to check out what a Tour of Flanders bike looked like 10 years ago – and how it compares to a modern one. Following that, we preview what bike tech we expect to see at this year’s Ronde and why we shouldn’t expect the kind of outlandish bike mods we often see at Paris-Roubaix. This week’s news in brief covers the new 38 and 42mm Vittoria Corsa Pro Control tyres, Tadej Pogačar’s Milan-San Remo skinsuit auction and our pick of the latest Lidl cycling deals. Finally, we end the pod with our rant of the week, in which Simon explains why he thinks more roadies should be using tubeless tyre inserts – and why they could save your life one day.
