Clock00:00, Thursday 3rd December 2020

It's no secret that E-Bikes are more popular than ever. We're big fans of them here at GCN, and if you've ever ridden one - we bet you are too! But are they the future? This week on the GCN Tech show, Ollie and Alex discuss whether or not E Bikes will eventually replace cars, and what tech would be required to make this happen!
