Description

The time has come for the geeks to share their strong opinions on road tubeless and the movement toward hookless rims. In this episode, and off the back of a high-profile failure, James, Ronan, and Dave dive into the growing concerns related to the many caveats around hookless road rims.Later in the episode, the conversation changes to fancier ways to hide cables through smaller headsets and the problems this may present. Then there’s a polarising PSA many probably won’t want to hear.In many ways, this episode is just our geeks ranting about the issues of modern bikes, but hopefully, it proves useful!Time stamps:3:15 - Digging into the big topic of road tubeless tyres blowing off hookless rims36:00 - A little promo of a podcast series not to miss37:12 - Baum and slotted steerer tubes are on Dave’s mind43:55 - The only good fix for contaminated brake pads47:10 - New things from Cadex48:05 - A new endurance road tyre from Vittoria
