What Makes a Road Bike Cost More Than a Car? - Rider Support
The Roadman Cycling Podcast - A podcast by Anthony Walsh
Why does a high-end road bike cost more than a car? This week, Anthony dives into the intricate details behind the hefty price tags, breaking down the materials, craftsmanship, and hidden costs that make these machines so expensive. We also tackle wider handlebars for gravel riding and how to balance control with comfort, plus the eternal question: how do you avoid flat tires? For light riders struggling on the flats, Anthony shares tips to build speed and efficiency. Finally, we explore whether waxing your chain is worth the hassle for gravel races and the benefits of adjusting tire pressures between front and rear for better handling. This episode is packed with insights to boost your riding experience, from tech upgrades to smarter riding strategies!
