New Shimano MTFU training groupset spotted at Tour of Flanders after party
Follow GCN on YouTube: 

We got the first look at a new training groupset from Shimano, what appears to be a 2x53 - 10x13 twenty speed singlespeed bike. Confusing? Perhaps, but the performance benefits are apparently very real according to one team owner who spoke to us.

Is A Cyclist's Body A Healthy Body? | GCN Show Ep. 589

If you were given £2,000 to buy any bike you want, what would you do? Here at GCN, we'd almost certainly go for a used bike.

Thanks to @buycycle Si, Alex, and special guest star from @gtn Mark Threlfall have done exactly that. Between them they've gone for a modern future-proof bike, a five year old superbike, and a time trial bike.

But most importantly, which is the best £2,000 used bike we could buy?

In association with 🤝 @buycycle  👉

We Bought Used Bikes For Under £2000 | Which Was Best?

Have we finally found the first carbon fibre monocoque UCI-banned superbike which can topple the time of a modern road bike? The Hotta has Tour de France Prologue Victories and Olympic Medals to its name and we've got not just one, but two of these very special machines to pit against a brand-new Canyon Aeroad. But there's a twist, one of the Hotta's is kitted out in full retro-guise, but the other, is a modern take, assembled with cutting-edge components to blend the two worlds into one. Could this create the ultimate mix of modern efficiency with old-school aerodynamic madness? There's only one way to find out!
