There are some bits of cycling tech that are, without question, fast. However, they're not always the most stylish components or bits of kit. This got us thinking: should you prioritise speed or style? On this week's GCN Tech show, Ollie & Alex hear from GCN's resident Fashion expert: Adam Blythe, and the true king of aero: Dan Bigham to see whether speed or style is more important.
