Reviewing the News w/ Mike Ferrentino (November 2024)

Bike news slowed down a bit in November, allowing Mike and Simon to get into some fun topics, like the history of multitools, and Mike’s fifty-year-old truck project/money pit. But there was still plenty of bike industry conversation, too, thanks to the seemingly limitless discounts that continue to disrupt the retail landscape. They also discuss the not-so-fun topic of bike theft and offer some insight on how to protect your bikes and recover them if they are stolen, and a whole lot more.RELATED LINKS:BLISTER+ MembershipBlister LabsThis Week’s Gear GiveawayBlister Mountain Bike Buyer’s GuideTOPICS & TIMES:Mike’s Fifty-Year-Old Truck Project (0:50)The Bike Industry's Global Discounts Continue (6:43)Deepest Discounts We’ve Ever Seen (8:51)How Can The Bike Industry Reset (13:37)De Minimis Reform (23:08)Bike theft (28:04)The History of Multitools (43:12)OUR OTHER PODCASTSBlister CinematicOff The CouchGEAR:30Blister PodcastCRAFTED Hosted on Acast.
