UCI's LATEST Controversial Decision

from The Roadman Cycling Podcast · host Anthony Walsh

In today's episode we delve into the contentious realm of modern cycling and scrutinise the UCI's recent decisions. A fervent debate has ignited within the cycling community, particularly in the aftermath of a eyebrow-raising ruling that has ruffled feathers. The UCI's proclamation of a forthcoming ban on inward-facing brake levers from 2024. In pursuit of ergonomic advantages and aerodynamic efficiencies, riders have modified their levers but the UCI has now ruled this unsafe. While improvements in safety regulations are needed this is a mis step. Todays we challenge the UCI to go beyond superficial changes and truly commit to safeguarding the essence of cycling.
