Do You Really Need a Winter Bike? | GCN Tech Show Ep. 109

Clock00:00, Thursday 23rd January 2020

Cycling in bad weather can absolutely ruin even the most durable of equipment. But do you really need a dedicated bike for winter riding? Chris and Ollie discuss whether a winter bike is really necessary or if you can use your race bike all year round. We also have all of your favourite features and a great edition of ‘Screw Riding Upgrades, Buy Upgrades’ in this week’s GCN Tech Show.

Don’t forget to get involved using the GCN App to vote for your favourite bikes!
