Thanks to Feedback Sports for sponsoring this podcast https://feedbacksports.com/\n \nIn this week’s episode of the BikeRadar podcast, Simon and Warren are back to digest the biggest cycling tech stories of the week.\n \nFirst up was Wednesday’s news that Fran Millar has stepped down as CEO of Rapha with immediate effect, after just two years at the helm.\n \nFollowing that, Rapha confirmed an “organisational restructure” and a “formal consultation process with affected team members” would soon begin.\n \nWith that in mind, Simon and Warren share their takes on where this all leaves the iconic British apparel brand, why everything seems to keep going wrong for it, and how it can get back on track.\n \nFollowing that, Simon quizzes Warren on his recent review of Newmen’s new Streem G.62 aero gravel wheels, which feature super-deep, and super-wide, aero rims.\n \nAre extreme wheels like this just for pro racers or are they suitable for punters too? As always, Warren’s got plenty of thoughts to share from his testing.\n \nThen, in this week’s news in brief, the duo cover the UCI’s recently announced review of its infamous Lugano Charter, and what rules they’d change if they were in charge of cycling.\n \nSimon and Warren also discuss Castelli’s recently updated Gabba and Perfetto jackets, and whether the iconic foul weather jacket fits into their cycling wardrobes.\n \nLastly, they finish up with Specialized’s latest special edition bike – a £12,999 / $14,999, limited edition replica of Remco Evenepoel’s Gold S-Works Tarmac SL9. Should everyday riders be buying Olympic gold medal-themed bikes? Simon’s not so sure…
