Geek Warning: The next frontier of XC race tech

For this week’s Geek Warning, James and Ronan were en-route to Eurobike, and so Dave was left talking to himself. After he submitted a three-hour rambling episode about his colour-coding preferences for hex keys, the team suggested that he record a new episode with Brad Copeland. In the episode, Dave and Brad chat about a lust-worthy new tool from Abbey Bike Tools, Wolf Tooth’s new LoneWolf 1x Road chainguide, and the next frontier of XC race tech. Of course, Brad and Dave also share what’s on their mind, and there’s a PSA that’s likely relevant to many. 3:38 - The biggest things at E-urobike 10:03 - Abbey’s biggest tool yet 19:23 – 1x chain guides for road 26:30 - Bike selection and other tech at the World Cup in Leogang 43:30 - What’s on Brad’s mind? Road Tubeless. 51:30 - What’s on Dave’s mind? You can probably guess. 57:42 – PSA to check those cables!
