This week, Dave and Ronan catch up to discuss WorldTour rumours and a few of the bigger stories in tech. One of which is Wilier\u2019s new aero bike, and while it wasn\u2019t what Ronan had expected, it raises questions about whether the new crop of Hyperbikes are a consumer-friendly option.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there\u2019s a PSA and Dave shares a \u2018Good Thing\u2019 that was on his mind from earlier in the day. And as per usual, members of Escape Collective get an extra half an hour of geekery as submitted questions get answered.<\/p>\n<p>Time stamps:<\/p>\n<p>1:00 &#8211; A little bit about electric tyre inflators<br \/>10:45 &#8211; Wilier\u2019s new Filante SLR aero bike isn\u2019t so radical<br \/>17:15 &#8211; WorldTour tech rumours<br \/>31:00 &#8211; Strava wants to be friends with Garmin again<br \/>34:00 &#8211; PSA to preventing stuck tubeless valve nuts<br \/>37:00 &#8211; Good Things for bleeding brakes<br \/>44:00 &#8211; Ask A Wrench (Members Only)<br \/>44:30 &#8211; Maintenance time versus durability in chain lubes<br \/>52:00 &#8211; Wedges in cycling shoes<br \/>1:01:00 &#8211; How to know when a slick tyre is worn<br \/>1:05:00 &#8211; Finding a 160 mm crank for use with 2x GRX<\/p>\n<p>                Did we do a good job with this story?<\/p>\n<p class=\"reactions\" data-post-id=\"68fac8cca962ad802f004f9d\">\n                    \ud83d\udc4dYep<br \/>\n                    \ud83d\udc4eNope\n                <\/p>\n<p class=\"tags\">\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/escapecollective.com\/tag\/podcasts\/\" title=\"Podcasts\" class=\"tag tag-67a677ae0c7ad49bf4f29427 podcasts\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Podcasts<\/a><br \/>\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/escapecollective.com\/tag\/tech\/\" title=\"Tech\" class=\"tag tag-67a677ae0c7ad49bf4f29565 tech\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Tech<\/a><br \/>\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/escapecollective.com\/tag\/geek-warning\/\" title=\"Geek Warning\" class=\"tag tag-67a677ae0c7ad49bf4f291de geek-warning\" rel=\"tag nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Geek Warning<\/a>\n                <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Podcasts Plus a handy PSA and why no brake bleed kits truly stand out.
