  • Geek Warning: Fingers crossed for Campagnolo giving us a thumbs up
    2024/11/01

    It may be the off-season in the racing world, but the land of bike tech never sleeps. In this episode of Geek Warning, you’ll hear Suvi, Dave, and Brad discuss an intriguing shifter-related patent from Campagnolo that perhaps can’t come soon enough.

    The geeks then discuss what they each seek in a drop handlebar and what their favourites are. Within this extended segment, you’ll hear about one-piece cockpits, more traditional two-piece setups, and picks for road and gravel purposes.

    We’ve also got some great Ask a Wrench questions that spark some deeper conversation.

    Enjoy!
