One of the things I will miss about john, is his unbelievable passion for the technology. he was the only person more passionate and more knowledgeable about cycling than us, the viewers. (Apart from Martin Aston:respect :) ) I'm sad that this is the first effort out of the gate for GCN Tech. I love Ollie and always will, so this is not on you Sir, but this just did not work guys.

Jon is to bike tech as Daniel Webster was to the dictionary. And getting Jon off the set is like asking Daniel to ease up on all those words--"Knock if off, Dan, we have too many already." Certainly, I appreciate every GCN presenter, each brings a lot to the table and nobody does more for humor and aero than Ollie. But nobody loves bike tech more than Jon and it is actually sad that he won't be sharing his passion and knowledge as a presenter anymore. And I feel out of sorts already without Jonny Tech.

Yeah Matt was a huge loss as he was hilarious but he was honestly replaceable and Ollie , Opie, and Hank filled that void relatively well. Losing Jon is not the same. This is not something that Ollie or anyone else can do. I really do hope they reconsider and put Jon back on the tech show. I can't imagine still wanting to watch these without him. If there is to be no Jon, there should be no tech show in my opinion. I love Ollie, but I could care less to hear him talking about tech when I am used to the quality in which Jon talks about tech.

#askgcntech I’m interested in buying some mudguards for a gravel bike, I have mudguard mounts but I was wondering what size to get. I normally run 34ish mm tires when commuting and sometimes use wider and narrower tires depending on if I’m on or off-road. What size mudguards should I get? And is it a bad idea to run mudguards which are recommended for wider tires than the ones you use? (Looking at SKS 53mm recommended for 37-45mm, or SKS 45mm recommended for 28-37mm tyres)

The idea that narrow bars are more difficult to control isn't necessarily true. It's just a case of getting the right width for you and getting used to them. For me that's 38cm.

I plan to get a new road bike with SRAM Force spinder based power meter. Since i already have a pair of pedal based power meters, I'm thinking about fitting the SRAM Force crank, power meter and chain ring on my gravel bike. But the gravel bike has Shimano 105, 2x11. I suppose I need a new a new DUB-BB to fit the SRAM crank. Will SRAM Force chain rings work with a Shimano 105 front derailleur? #askgcntech

#askgcntech I just got a power meter, tried doing a workout using it. Had my power display set to average over 3s, but found I couldn't sit at any power level (it would just bounce between significant over and significantly under) Is that normal? Should I just use the real time output for workouts?

Just FYI. 8070 levers can't commodate sw-r610 sprint sifters. 6850 levers work with these. For 8070, you can install only sw-r9150 sprint sifters. The old sw-r610 has different style connector, which is missing from newer style levers.

@Ed.R
@Ed.R 4 роки тому
@@duncangregor4584 I do all that but simple fact is that the friction between two surfaces needed to provide braking always results in wear off both surfaces. Simple law of physics, obviously the choice of material affects the rate of wear of each surface. Hardened steel rims would be the best way to go if you really want decent rim brakes that last.

I have to say this is my first thumbs down of any GCN video. Honestly I will probably just remove any rating. Tech clinic needs to be done by a mechanic with some presenter skills. Ollie, you are a great reporter but mechanics, and interviews, are not your strong points. This video combined both. In fact, the more uncomfortable you are with a topic, the more you talk with your hands which you did almost constantly in this video. Nor do I feel that the tech clinic is the right segment for an interview. Edwin should have been interviewed as a part of ollie’s Hour of Power series. There he could go much more in depth and really give an education on TT bars and their ability to make Ollie more aero. His definition of “you don’t push with rope” was however fantastic. That explains so much about carbon fiber in a simple one liner. Another issue I have with this video I’d that you only covered 3 question. Three questions does not make for a “clinic”; it makes for an infomercial, yet this had no product. Tech is difficult enough but when the presenter is constantly saying, “you can,” “you could,” “if you,” etc. rather then, using “I have,” or “once I,” or “I would,” it loses an incredible amount of integrity. You haven’t stepped down to the level of ‘Tony Tenspeed’ (search for him) but you have just turned to face him. Now to remove that thumbs down...

Whatever they did to, or didn't do for, Jon seems to be a step down fr GCN. Did Jon dare to ask for a raise, but not get it? The man loved the tech, loved the position, and his recent interviews down-under were some of his best work yet. I'll submit thumbs down on the tech show.
