EPISODE 157: Rider Safety in Bike Design

show notes

This week Sean and John look at the trends in modern road bike design and their impact on carbon fibre design and manufacture. Specifically, how this affects riders safety, both at world tour level and in the Sunday club run.

Based on an in depth discussion on this subject Sean has with Raoul Luescher from Luescher Technik for Team Camp members, expect a bit of a rant!

Cycle Systems courses looked like a perfect fit... I expanded my scope, lost a few bad habits and discovered tricks that would have saved me hours of grief in the past.
