The Hottest Bike Tech From The 2020 Giro d'Italia
The Giro D'Italia is often a race where new tech makes its debut as the first grand tour of the season. However in 2020 the Giro is 5 months later in the year, but that hasn't stopped riders and teams from breaking out some pretty exciting bike tech!

@Przemyslaw Sliwinski Not at all. For example the winner of the TdF used rim brakes which are not hot at all and even though as a professional he did not do that by choice but because he got paid to use them it meant that all the luddites and old fogeys came in their real chamois-lined cycling shorts.

#tech is the integrated cables which makes bikes look aerodynamic and fast. Downside though would be difficulty in installing, and maintenance 'cause you may need to disassemble and assemble the whole difficult routine until you get the standard of doing things.

Embarrassing response to Palace collab. Partnerships like this should be applauded as it opens the sport up to new audiences. Or maybe we just want to keep it for white middle-class fat blokes in Richmond park...

Alex Dowsett riding a HED Disc wheel is my favorite tech bit. I've been riding HED for 5 plus years and I can't imagine myself riding anything else and hearing a Tour Pro using his own money to purchase a HED Disc wheel is awesome.

HeyHey Tech lads, quick one on this vid. I spotted Ganna’s stunning Pinarello TT bike had some funky crimping on the area around the rear brake calliper. Funky indeed. Definite aero gains but do other high end bikes have this? I’ve obviously seen the caliper covers you get on triathlon TT bikes. Perhaps one for #AskGCNTech.

#Cycling #GCN #GCNTech Just blows me away how they spend hundreds if not thousands of hours and financial resources to make these tires and wheels.... Yet they don't rotationally balance them to get 100% of the wheel & tire performance.

As a skateboarder its kind of interesting to see how many people don't like the palace collab. I feel like many cyclists don't get how big of a deal this actually is and how it gets the sport a lot of media coverage and a lot more attention.

At around the video time of 2:24 of this video early on stating of a new aero helmet. Doesn't look like one at all. It more or less looks like the ones from the 1990's / 2000 style for the length and only has holes at the front. Not new at all. But whose to argue! That's only my opinion. look old school is new again.

I know that you try put your sponsor bikes and UK contries TEAMS or CYCLISTS on your vídeos, but the best of this is you never talk about who is the Maglia Rosa, is is a Portuguese guy that make a better one grand Tour than a Bernal or Pogocar. How long João Almeida have the Rosa? You guys ned to be honesto with cycling and be real. By the way the Maglia of King of Mountain is from other Portuguese. I hope this two guys back home with the jersey. Possible you speek about this or not.!

Cool tech. Just a detail, it’s called “vortex shedding” and now “shredding”. Because the vortices separate from the surface in an oscillatory manner (shedding).

l love Ollie, but the paint job is "disruptive"? SERIOUSLY??? :( It is NOT "disruptive". Not in the formal recent iteration hbr.org/2015/12/what-is-disruptive-innovation . It is also not disruptive in the the way it is now used as a common euphemism--used by billionaires when they find new ways to concentrate streams of income away from small businesses to the billionaire owners of large corporations.

In my opinion, Ganna should not be allowed to get a gold bike, only the olympic champion should be allowed to get a gold bike, and even though Cancellara doesn't race anymore, he should be tho only rider to get the privilage of a gold time trail bike and only Van Avermaet should be the only one on a gold road bike which is luckily still the case.

10:11 Maglia Rosa - one of the very few oddities in the Italian language: There is no discernible 'g' sound in 'gli' similar to the essentially silent 'g' in the 'gn' as found in Campagnolo or Legnano (Italian gn = Spanish ñ = Portuguese nh). But to make things easier there are NO exceptions....ever.
