Clock00:00, Thursday 21st May 2020

We love upgrading our bikes here at GCN. Upgrades can get your old, run down bike feeling brand new. They can make it look better, go faster, and even add functionality that you were missing out on before! Whether it's something as simple as swapping the stock tyres out for a new pair, or adding that classic gold chain *fist bump noise*, Manon's here with her top 5 upgrades to improve your road bike.
