Then, in this week’s news in brief, the two cover Zwift’s new integration with Campagnolo's wireless shifters, the sad news that local bike brand, Temple Cycles, is closing, and, finally, the key takeaways from a recent European Cycling Industries (ECI) seminar – which we attended to find out how the bike industry plans to recruit and retain more bike mechanics in the coming years.

Bianchi is in deep trouble, according to reporting by Escape Collective and The Business of Cycling.
With debts amounting to €100 million at the end of 2024 and masses of unsold inventory, the historic Italian brand appears to be on the brink of becoming the next major victim of the post-COVID bike industry slump.
So where did it all go wrong, and how can the brand that made bikes for legends such as Fausto Coppi and Marco Pantani find its way back to sustainability? Simon and Warren are back to discuss that and more in this week’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast.
Following that discussion, Simon quizzes Warren on his recent testing of Factor’s radical aero road bike, the One. Is it a specialist tool you should only buy if you’re an elite racer, or is it a bike average riders might actually consider?
We then finish up with our news in brief, in which Simon and Warren discuss Pivot’s new road bike, research from Imperial College London that shows collapsible bike helmets offer less protection that conventional ones, and the news that a third of women pro cyclists receive no team salary, according to a report by The Cyclists' Alliance.

Cannondale’s owners have announced plans to close its US office and move all of the brand’s operations to Europe.

Simon and Warren are back to discuss that and more in this week’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast!
Following that, the two chat about ENVE’s new super-deep 6.7 road wheels – and whether Warren thinks they can justify their close-to-$4,000 price tag.
The duo then finish up the pod with the news in brief, in which they cover Team Total Energies signing up to ride Pardus bikes in 2027, the controversial result at last weekend’s British Hill Climb Championships, and last but not least, Zwift’s new premium subscription tier, Zwift+.

Simon and Ashley are back for another episode of the BikeRadar podcast.
We kick off with the news that Garmin has announced three new bike computers, including a new flagship Edge 1060 – its most expensive bike computer ever!
After talking through what’s new, Simon and Ashley discuss why Garmin products seem to launch at such high prices nowadays, and whether it feels justified or not.
Following that, in light of Simon’s recently published review of Shimano’s S-Phyre RX910 gravel cycling shoes, the two discuss 2-bolt versus 3-bolt cleats for road cycling, and which is better for everyday riders.
We then finish things off with the news in brief, which this week includes details of the COROS Dura 2 bike computer, two new tyres from Continental and Komoot’s latest update for Google wearables.

As Rapha is closing stores across the world, MAAP has just opened a ‘concept store’ in central London.
With that in mind, Simon and Warren are back for another episode of the BikeRadar podcast to discuss whether MAAP is the ‘new Rapha’, or if it can build something more sustainable like ASSOS or Castelli.
Following that, the two discuss Warren’s soon-to-be-published review of Shimano’s GRX Di2 electronic gravel groupset – and what they’d like to see improved in a future version.
Then in ‘news in brief’, they discuss the City of London Police’s innovative ‘sin bin’ for red light-jumping cyclists, Hunt’s new super-wide gravel wheels and DT Swiss’s new gravel suspension fork – and whether gravel suspension has become irrelevant thanks to bikes with increasingly wide tyre clearance.

Should you buy a race bike or something more versatile? It’s a question that the cycling community can’t stop talking about, but in this week’s edition of the BikeRadar podcast Simon and Warren have their final say on the debate, once and for all (maybe)...
Following that, Warren brings us the news about Colnago’s new G5-X gravel bike, and what it’s like to ride, following his time out in Tuscany with the Italian brand.
And then, in our news in brief, we’ve got news of Ridley’s new climbing bike, the Falcn RS 2.0, Look’s new gravel race bike and, finally, Van Rysel’s new 32in cross-country bike – which has some very interesting wheels, so stick around to the end of the podcast for that!

From ceramic bearings to expensive shoes, and pro-spec frames and components – what’s your pick for the most overrated cycling upgrade? Let us know in the comments below.

Thanks to Feedback Sports for sponsoring this podcast https://feedbacksports.com/ In this week’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast, Simon and Warren are back to digest the biggest cycling tech stories of the week. First up was Wednesday’s news that Fran Millar has stepped down as CEO of Rapha with immediate effect, after just two years at the helm. Following that, Rapha confirmed an “organisational restructure” and a “formal consultation process with affected team members” would soon begin. With that in mind, Simon and Warren share their takes on where this all leaves the iconic British apparel brand, why everything seems to keep going wrong for it, and how it can get back on track. Following that, Simon quizzes Warren on his recent review of Newmen’s new Streem G.62 aero gravel wheels, which feature super-deep, and super-wide, aero rims. Are extreme wheels like this just for pro racers or are they suitable for punters too? As always, Warren’s got plenty of thoughts to share from his testing. Then, in this week’s news in brief, the duo cover the UCI’s recently announced review of its infamous Lugano Charter, and what rules they’d change if they were in charge of cycling. Simon and Warren also discuss Castelli’s recently updated Gabba and Perfetto jackets, and whether the iconic foul weather jacket fits into their cycling wardrobes. Lastly, they finish up with Specialized’s latest special edition bike – a £12,999 / $14,999, limited edition replica of Remco Evenepoel’s Gold S-Works Tarmac SL9. Should everyday riders be buying Olympic gold medal-themed bikes? Simon’s not so sure…

In this week’s episode of the BikeRadar Podcast Simon and Warren are back to discuss the new Canyon Grail, which Warren has recently been testing.
While its aero credentials and massive tyre clearance have captured headlines, might its aggressive pricing be the big story here? Warren thinks so…
Following that, the two discuss Shimano’s new SPD-SLR pedal system, and reflect on why it’s been a slightly underwhelming launch so far.
They then wrap up with the news in brief, which this week includes the new Specialized S-Works Diverge, new wide road tyre options from Vittoria and Continental, and another wild new time trial helmet from POC.

Leaning on their decades of riding experience, they tell you what bikes, kit and accessories are worth buying – and which ones you should avoid (at least when you’re just starting out).
Following this, Simon quizzes Warren on his recently published review of the new Pinarello Dogma X. Although it’s by no means a bad bike, its lofty price tag makes it a tough sell versus the competition.
Lastly, in this week’s news in brief, the duo discuss Campagnolo’s recent sale of a minority stake to an investment group reportedly backed by South African billionaire, Ivan Glasenberg.
Then there’s the peculiar news of new carbon wheelsets from Columbus, and Panaracer’s new AGXERO road tyres.

In this week’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast, Simon and Warren discuss why the latest GPS bike computers can’t convince either of them to upgrade – and why Garmin’s 7-year old Edge 830 remains the undefeated champ (at least in Simon’s opinion).
Following this, Simon quizzes Warren on why he’s changed his mind about aero gravel bikes, following a number of recent bike tests.
We then round out the podcast with News in Brief, which includes details (and a hot take from Simon) about Continental’s new 32mm Aero 111 tyre, news that a fund to help young riders has been set up in memory of Finlay Tarling, and a brief preview of what to expect in our upcoming Bike of The Year test.

In this week’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast, Simon and Warren discuss the demise of the Acell Group – a Dutch bicycle maker that owns a number of historic brands, including Raleigh, Lapierre and Haibike.
This appears to be the latest fallout from the overstocking crisis that followed the bike industry's Covid boom, but what does it mean for everyday riders? As a veteran of the bike industry, Warren’s seen it all – and he has a few ideas as to why this keeps happening.
Simon and Warren also discuss the apparent leak of a new Shimano freehub standard – designed for 13-speed drivetrains. Is another freehub standard what the bike industry needs? We're not so sure...
Warren then talks us through his 90s mountain bike conversion, before finishing on the controversy surrounding padded bras and aero gains at the Tour de France Femmes.

Then, in this week’s news in brief, we discuss Garmin’s new potential Whoop-killer, Shimano’s new mid-range gravel shoes and the UCI’s staunch defense of nighttime anti-doping tests.
