What do you think was the weirdest tech from EUROBIKE this year?

Got to love the random 'potential IP infringement' booths at trade shows - it's always worth turning up early on the first day to see which ones get raided by the trademark police (who are particularly fun in Germany!).

I personally don’t want electronics on my bike. It’s just more stuff to go wrong, plus I can actually fix mechanical parts myself.

The thought of having to charge my mech, remote, dropper, remote and battery if it’s an emtb (and probably brake levers soon) just to go out a rip in the woods sounds like hell 😂

@@livefreeandshred9818 yeah that may be the case but you still need to charge it and it’s the beginning of a slippery slope where most of the components need charged & I’m not interested in that at all, it’s a mtb 😂 My mechanical drivetrain works flawlessly too but it doesn’t need to be charged and I can fix it myself.

@Velo1010Ай бұрын
Never was too interested in heated grips, but now I can see the advantages. Toes and hands are first body parts to really feel the effects of the cold. If I lived in a cold climate I’d buy a pair and use them with heated socks.
@OwenBikeNerdАй бұрын
I could feel the advantage in regular grim cold and wet conditions - I mean they feel like they'd be great in cold and dry too - interesting tech! Cheers Owen

#askgmbntech - I know Anna got to do it, (and so did Doddy back in the day), but seeing him geek out about Gary, I am looking forward to seeing Owen get to Marin and get some time in with Gary along with Charlie, Tom, Otis, Joe both on the trails and in the museum. I was fortunate enough to do the legends ride out a couple of times (last time was with Peaty when he got into the Hall of Fame) and just hearing about the early days of Mountain Biking whilst on the trails with those guys was awesome.

I see no advantage for the consumer of the new SRAM OEM T Type groupset, only for the Bike manufacturers. It will reduce the initial cost of the bike, allowing the manufacturuer to offer the bike at a lower price point, but when parts wear our out or break ,the replacement SRAM options are expensive. Sure you could remove it all and replace with a cheaper mecanical groupset, but that is still going to be outlay and may not even be possible if the manufacture has cut costs even more and made no allowance for cable routing on the frame so it is 'wireless only'.
