The endurance bike some of us have been waiting for

from Geek Warning · host Escape Collective

This week on Geek Warning, Dave is joined by Escape’s Suvi Loponen and Alex Hunt to talk about the latest in cycling tech. Alex was on the ground at the Tour de France Femmes and came away pondering why 1x hadn’t hit the women’s field like it has the men. Meanwhile, Suvi has spent the past couple of months riding the new Trek Domane endurance road bike. Dave and Suvi discuss why this bike is likely to be a big win for Trek. Then, as usual, those on our member-only podcast feeds get access to Ask a Wrench. This week Dave is joined by Colin Williams to answer questions related to replicating fit dimensions between bikes, headset changes, and why high-engagement hubs aren’t more popular in road racing.Time stamps: 00:01:20 - Accell group likely to be split up  00:08:15 - Tech trends at TDFF 00:17:09 - Tyres are growing, slowly  00:22:00 - Trek’s new Domane  00:33:45 - Bike prices coming down?  00:39:30 - The case for semi-integrated cable routing 00:43:00 - We’re all having a meet-up  00:48:15 - Ask a Wrench with Colin Williams (Members Only)  00:50:00 - How to match fit dimensions between bikes  01:01:30 - Is it ok to mismatch the headset?  01:06:15 - Replacing a proprietary headset 01:14:00 - High engagement hubs Crit racing?
