Time trials are a battle for speed where every marginal gain matters—but those gains often come at a high price, making it harder for riders without access to costly equipment to compete. 🚴♂️💨 In an effort to level the playing field, Cycling Canada has introduced a ban on time trial bikes at the junior level to emphasise raw talent over technology. But is this the right move for the future of cycling? In this edition of the GCN Tech Show, Alex and Ollie are joined by Silca CEO - Josh Poertner to discuss and debate the decision made by Cycling Canada. Plus, we take a look at some stunning new pro bikes revealed for the upcoming season, along with versatile all-rounders that are turning heads! 👀✨ 00:00 Welcome to the GCN Tech Show - Headlines 00:25 Canada bans TT bikes at the junior level 02:45 Trying to level the playing field 05:59 Cycling time trials in the UK 06:17 Restrictions at the pro level? 07:38 No computers and no radios at the pro level 09:52 What are your thoughts? 10:25 Hot and spicy tech 10:28 New Ridley Noah Fast release 12:33 Basso releases the new Sempre Veloce 14:13 Custom painted Wilier Triestina 16:28 Pashley Road Finder 18:33 Park Tool x Soudal Quick-Step Pro team partnership 18:41 Pinarello teams up with MotoGP rider 20:17 Pinarello retro build bike 21:24 GCN x Zwift Club Rides 21:34 Comments of the week 25:55 Bike vault Useful Links: GCN Tech Uploader 👉 https://gcn.eu/techuploader Subscribe so you don’t miss a thing 👉 https://gcntech.co/subscribe Insurance: Viewers in the USA and UK can explore GCN Insurance products 👉 https://gcn.eu/GCNinsurance Sign Up To The GCN Newsletter 👉 https://gcn.eu/Newsletter Visit the GCN Shop 👉 https://gcn.eu/gcnshop GCN WhatsApp Channel 👉 https://gcn.eu/GCNwhatsapp GCN Instagram Broadcast Channel 👉 https://gcn.eu/instagrambroadcast Join the GCN Club on Zwift and ride with us! 👉 https://gcn.eu/GCNClubRides What do you think about the decision?
