Show notes

If you’ve been paying attention to the pro road-racing scene recently, you may have noticed many riders are increasingly using oversized chainrings. Are today’s pro riders so fast they simply need bigger gears than before, or could there be more to this tech trend than meets the eye? In today’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast, Simon von Bromley sits down with Liam Cahill to discuss this development and whether there’s anything the rest of us can learn from it. If you have any thoughts, questions or feedback, you can contact the team at [email protected]. https://www.bikeradar.com/features/tech/why-are-pros-using-such-big-chainrings Learn more about your ad choices.
